Referee assignments for preseason week 3
2025 preseason wraps up this week
UPDATE: A previous version of this post stated that Clay Martin was the referee for the Steelers-Panthers game according to an earlier version of the flip card released by the Carolina Panthers. Adrian Hill was the referee for the game.
Here are the referee assignments for the final week of the 2025 preseason. Bill Vinovich’s crew is off this week.
All times are Eastern. Live games on NFL Network will be blacked out and telecast on local stations in both teams’ markets. (In some blackouts, a game scheduled to air on tape delay game will be aired live on NFL Network as a substitute game.) All games are available live on NFL+.
The 2025 officiating crews are listed here, but note that there may be substitutions from the regular crew personnel each week.
