How much does YouTube TV cost?


Sunday is the first full weekend of the National Football League regular season. To get into all the games, you’ll need the NFL Sunday Ticket package. You can also save some money.

The NFL season has officially begun and it’s almost time for the first Sunday of the regular season to kick off. But wait, you don’t have an NFL Sunday Ticket yet. Here’s how.

Why is NFL Sunday Ticket such a big deal for die-hard NFL fans and fantasy football players? Because the programming package lets you watch every out-of-market NFL game being played, in addition to the games airing on your local CBS, Fox, and NBC stations.

This Sunday, a dozen NFL games are scheduled to air on CBS and Fox, with start times between 1:00 p.m. ET and 4:25 p.m. ET.

Before the 2023-24 NFL regular season, the NFL Sunday Ticket package was provided by satellite service DirecTV. But in December 2022, Google won the rights to the package, paying about $2 billion a year for seven years, according to The Wall Street Journal.

For $10.99 per month ($43.96 for the season), you can also add the NFL RedZone channel, hosted by Scott Hanson, which follows big plays during Sunday games live for seven hours and can show up to eight games at a time via the famous “Octobox.”

To get the NFL Sunday Ticket student discount, students can sign up on the YouTube site. YouTube recommends using a personal email address to set up NFL Sunday Ticket (you’ll watch through the NFL page on YouTube), as some university networks restrict .edu accounts.
