How to watch NFL Games on YouTube TV or YouTube

There are a few different ways to watch NFL football with YouTube TV or YouTube. Whether you want full game coverage, or to follow your favorite teams playing out-of-market on Sunday afternoons, we have options for you.

Understand your NFL viewing options

To get the games you want, it’s important to know the available options for local broadcasts and out-of-market games. Bundle NFL Sunday Ticket with a main YouTube TV plan or sports plan to watch all your out-of-market games alongside your local and national TV broadcasts in one seamless experience. Or purchase NFL Sunday Ticket by itself to watch out-of-market Sunday games directly on YouTube, without needing a main YouTube TV plan or sports plan.

YouTube TV (local & national games)

The main YouTube TV plan or Sports plan gives you access to live local and national NFL broadcasts. This includes games shown in your area on CBS, FOX, NBC, ESPN and the NFL Network.

NFL Sunday Ticket (Out-of-Market games)

NFL Sunday Ticket is the only way to get access to regular-season Sunday afternoon games (games broadcast on CBS and FOX) that are not being broadcast on your local channels. Note: It doesn’t include local games, national broadcasts (like Sunday Night Football or Monday Night Football), or postseason games.

You can buy NFL Sunday Ticket as an add-on to your YouTube TV plan, or as a standalone Primetime channel. This standalone option allows you to watch directly on YouTube without needing any YouTube TV plan.

Note: For the most game coverage, the YouTube TV Main or Sports plan with the NFL Sunday Ticket add-on will give you access to every game except select digital-only and international games. With this option, you can watch every available game from the YouTube TV app on your phone, TV or desktop.

Sign up for the NFL Sunday Ticket standalone Primetime Channel

Note: With YouTube TV or NFL Sunday Ticket, you can also choose to bundle NFL RedZone, which gives you look-ins from every Sunday afternoon game, including touchdowns and highlights. To do this, add NFL RedZone at checkout. You can also add it to your existing membership from the YouTube TV app or tv.youtube.com. Do this by going to your Membership tab in Settings.

Other YouTube Primetime Channels (local games, standalone options)

To watch locally broadcast games on FOX, CBS, or NBC on YouTube, you can subscribe to individual YouTube Primetime Channels. Here is what is included with each option:

  • Paramount Plus: Stream your local, in-market Sunday afternoon games broadcast on CBS. 
  • FOX One: Stream your local, in-market Sunday afternoon games broadcast on FOX.
  • Peacock: Stream Sunday Night Football and local games broadcast on NBC.

NFL viewing features with YouTube TV & YouTube

With either NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube TV or YouTube, you’ll be able to watch up to four games at once with Multiview, and track your fantasy team in real-time when you watch with Fantasy view. If you subscribe to other YouTube Primetime Channels (such as Paramount+, FOX One, or Peacock), you can also watch those locally broadcast games alongside your NFL Sunday Ticket games in Multiview directly on YouTube. From your TV, you’ll also be able to catch up on big moments with Key Plays if you're late to the game. And no matter which NFL Sunday Ticket option you choose, you can enjoy unlimited DVR to record games by accessing your subscription through the YouTube TV app.
