NFL Week 13 TV distribution map: Don’t expect to see Lions vs. Jaguars out of market

Week 13 is a doubleheader on CBS, but the Detroit Lions find themselves on FOX even though they’re facing off against the AFC South’s Jacksonville Jaguars.

With five other games being broadcast by FOX this week, the Lions have steady competition for a television market. So it comes as little surprise that a Week 13 matchup between two 4-7 teams will not be available for anyone other than the local market.

That isn’t to say that the game doesn’t have some interesting storylines. You could bill this games as the Jaguars and No.
