NFL Live is a National Football League studio show, currently airing Tuesday through Friday at 4:00 p.m and 12:00 a.m ET on the ESPN cable network. Formerly known as NFL 2Night, the program is the only NFL related studio program to air during the week. As such, NFL Live is not a highlight show, as Sunday and Monday game highlights are handled by the various other NFL studio shows, including NFL Primetime. Unlike shows for other sports, NFL Live even runs throughout the entire offseason.
Since 2005, NFL Live has been presented in high definition on ESPNHD.
