The Las Vegas Raiders return to Allegiant Stadium on Sunday to face the Buffalo Bills in a Week 6 matchup kicking off at 1:25 p.m. PST on CBS. Las Vegas enters the game at 3-2 after consecutive losses, including a 45-17 defeat at New England last week, while Buffalo arrives at 4-1 following an overtime win over the Rams.
The CBS broadcast will feature Jim Nantz on play-by-play, J.J. Watt as analyst, and Tracy Wolfson on the sidelines. Streaming options include Paramount+, Fubo, DirecTV Stream, NFL+, and NFL Sunday Ticket. Local radio coverage is available on KOMP-FM (92.3), KRLV-AM (920), and KENO-AM (1460) for Spanish-language broadcasts, with national radio on SiriusXM and Compass Media Networks.
The Raiders defense faces a significant challenge containing Bills quarterback Josh Allen, who leads an AFC East-leading offense. Las Vegas may rely on linebacker Nakobe Dean to help slow Allen, while rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza could see action after making his regular-season debut against the Patriots. Wide receiver Jalen Nailor is also expected to return after missing the New England game.
Las Vegas will be without a key defensive tackle from its rotation, though the specific player was not named in reports. On the other side, former Bills cornerback Taron Johnson, acquired by the Raiders this offseason, will face his old team. Defensive end Maxx Crosby, recently fined by the NFL for unnecessary roughness in Week 5, is drawing heavy attention from Buffalo's coaches and players.
Tickets for the first Bills-Raiders game at Allegiant Stadium with fans in attendance started at $380.25 on Ticketmaster as of Sunday morning. Weather will not be a factor under the stadium's closed roof, though 8 News Now Chief Meteorologist Tedd Florendo forecast a high of 77 degrees and a low of 63 degrees outside.
