Date:2025-04-11 13:06:18
The NFL season is officially underway and it's almost kickoff time for the league's first Sunday of action. But wait, you haven't gotten NFL Sunday Ticket yet. Here's how.
Why is NFL Sunday Ticket such a big play for transplanted NFL fans and fantasy football players alike? Because the programming package lets you watch all of the out-of-market NFL games being played, beyond those broadcast on your local CBS, Fox and NBC stations.
This Sunday there's a dozen NFL games scheduled for Sunday on CBS and Fox, with start times between 1 p.m. ET and 4:25 p.m. ET.
Prior to the 2023-2024 NFL regular season, the NFL Sunday Ticket package had been delivered by satellite service DirecTV. But in December 2022, Google won the rights to the package, paying about $2 billion annually over seven years, according to The Wall Street Journal.

After those four months, you'll be charged $72.99 per month for YouTube TV's base plan. For $10.99 per month ($43.96 for the season), you can also add the NFL RedZone channel, hosted by Scott Hanson, hosted by Scott Hanson, tracks big plays during Sunday games over seven hours live and may show up to 8 games simultaneously via the famous "Octobox."

How to get the NFL Sunday Ticket student discount
Students attending colleges or universities can subscribe to the NFL Sunday Ticket for $199, a savings of $280 over the $479 regular price – and they can add NFL RedZone for $10.
To get the NFL Sunday Ticket student discount offer, students can sign up on the YouTube site. YouTube suggests using a personal email address to set up NFL Sunday Ticket (you watch via the NFL page on YouTube) because some university networks place restrictions on .edu accounts.
Then, students can choose either to subscribe to NFL Sunday Ticket ($199) or NFL Sunday Ticket with NFL RedZone ($209) and will then verify their student status and supply a form of payment.
