How this service works
ESPN NFL scoreboard for one date: every game with home and away team, score, status (scheduled, live, final) and stadium, from ESPN's public site JSON. Regular season and playoffs as ESPN lists them; times are UTC.
Output
Returns a JSON object with the queried date, a count of games, and an array of game objects each containing: game ID, away team name/abbreviation/score, home team name/abbreviation/score, full game name, game state (pre/in/post), venue name, human-readable status (Scheduled/In Progress/Final), and UTC start time. Also includes the ESPN source URL and a checkedAt timestamp.
Example use cases
Check last Sunday's NFL results
“What were all the NFL game results from last Sunday? Show me the scores, teams, and final status for each game.”
Monitor live game scores
“Are there any NFL games going on right now today? If so, what are the current scores and which stadiums are they at?”
Research playoff game outcomes
“What were the NFL playoff scores from January 19th, 2025? I need the home and away teams, final scores, and venues for every game that day.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.fadeandco.workers.dev/api/dev/espn-nfl-scoreboard?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need structured NFL game data for a specific date — scores, statuses, and venues — without scraping ESPN directly. Ideal for agents needing quick game results or live status checks. Prefer this over general web search when you need clean, machine-readable JSON output with consistent field names. Best for regular season and playoff dates that ESPN tracks.
Side effects
- No games on the requested date returns an empty games array with count 0
- Invalid date format may return an error or default to yesterday's data
- ESPN's underlying API being unavailable causes the proxy to fail
- Dates far in the future may return only scheduled games with no scores
- Preseason or off-season dates may return no games
