LA Rams make triumphant return to CBS LA, promise wealth of coverage
The Los Angeles Rams are moving their games back to CBS ahead of the 2026 NFL season.
CBS Los Angeles announced a multiyear partnership with the Rams Thursday, once again becoming the team's broadcasting partner in the Southern California market.
The Rams and CBS LA have revived their relationship that originally began in 2016 when the Rams relocated back to LA from St. Louis.
With nearly 90 hours of news and sports programming every week, CBS LA is uniquely positioned to deliver more Rams coverage than any other media outlet in the market," Regional president and general manager of CBS LA and CBS Colorado Tim Wieland said in a news release. This partnership is about serving fans, celebrating Los Angeles and extending our shared commitment to the community. We're proud to once again be the Home of the Rams."
Through the new deal, LA-natives will get exclusive local broadcasts of Rams preseason games on CBS LA, weekly yearround programming, including a coaches show featuring head coach Sean McVay, and original Rams content available exclusively across CBS LA platforms.
The significance of CBS LA returning as the "Home of the Rams" reinforces the station's leadership in local sports broadcasting and original team-focused storytelling.
CBS LA partnered with us in 2016 when we returned to Los Angeles and helped reintroduce our organization to this city," Rams president Kevin Demoff said in a news release. We are thrilled to once again team up with CBS LA to bring fans closer to Rams football through our preseason games and exclusive content year-round. This partnership will enable us to deepen our connection with Angelenos through CBS' dynamic programming as well as shared efforts that will make an impact on the community we all call home."
NFL preseason begins August 6. The regular-season kicks off Sept. 9. The Rams open their season across international waters when they play the San Francisco 49ers in Melbourne, Australia, during Week 1 on Sept. 10.
