NFL Sunday Ticket 2020: How To Watch, Pricing, And More

The 2020 NFL season officially begins when Pat Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs battle Deshaun Watson and the Houston Texans on Thursday Night Football! While there’s no shortage of weekly NFL games available to watch on FOX, CBS, NBC, and ESPN, NFL Sunday Ticket is your best option for streaming out of market regular season games.

Available for DIRECTV subscribers and for eligible non-DIRECTV customers, NFL Sunday Ticket is an invaluable streaming option for football fans who don’t live near their favorite NFL team. Sunday Ticket eligibility information can be tricky, so we divided the article into four separate NFL Sunday Ticket streaming sections, as well as an extra segment on NFL RedZone.

Here’s everything you need to know about NFL Sunday Ticket.

HOW TO WATCH NFL SUNDAY TICKET:

If you’re a DIRECTV subscriber, NFL Sunday Ticket is available through a number of different packages: DIRECTV Choice ($69.99/month), DIRECTV Ultimate ($84.99/month), DIRECTV Xtra ($79.99/month), and DIRECTV PREMIER ($134.99/month).

Since DIRECTV isn’t available everywhere, you may be able to purchase an NFL Sunday Ticket subscription without DIRECTV, but there are a variety of eligibility requirements.

HOW TO WATCH NFL SUNDAY TICKET WITHOUT DIRECTV:

If you don’t have DIRECTV, you may be able to sign-up for NFL Sunday Ticket.TV. According to the Sunday Ticket website, the service is only available to select non-DIRECTV customers. You may be eligible if you:

  • Live in select multi-dwelling unit buildings (apartments, condos, etc.,) nationwide in the U.S. where DIRECTV service is not available
  • Live in select areas within various metropolitan cities
  • Live in a residence that has been verified as unable to receive DIRECTV satellite TV service due to obstructions blocking access to satellite signals
  • Are a college student

You can check your eligibility on the NFL Sunday Ticket website.

HOW TO STREAM OUT OF MARKET NFL GAMES VIA NFL REDZONE:

If you’re looking for an additional way to stream out of market games, one option is NFL RedZone, which brings you every touchdown from every game. RedZone is available to watch through your cable provider, via the $10.99/a month Sports Plus add-on via fuboTV, through Sling TV’s Sports Extra package, or YouTube TV’s Sports Plus add-on ($10.99/month).

You can also purchase NFL RedZone directly through the NFL app for $34.99, but you’ll only be allowed to stream it on your phone. You can find the option on the app by selecting “more” on the bottom right of your screen and then clicking the icon at the top right.

Additional information regarding RedZone can be found on the NFL’s website.
