You can watch most NFL games without a cable subscription. The right setup depends on which games you want and how much you want to pay.
Option 1: A live TV streaming service
Live TV services stream the same channels as cable over the internet. For the NFL, the channels that matter are your local CBS, FOX, NBC, and ABC stations, plus ESPN and NFL Network. Several services offer them, and lineups differ, so compare before you choose. Open any game on this site and tap Watch live to check whether that game is available through our partner, Fubo.
Channel lineups differ by service and by city, so check the game page before you sign up.
Option 2: A digital antenna
CBS, FOX, NBC, and ABC are broadcast networks. A digital TV antenna can pick up your local stations for free, with no monthly bill. It will not carry ESPN or NFL Network, and reception depends on where you live.
Option 3: Standalone apps
A few games are streamed on specific apps. Thursday night games, for example, are tied to Prime Video for most of the season. Check each game page for the listed channel.
What to watch out for
- Blackouts and local rules. Which game you can see depends on your market. See NFL blackouts and local games.
- Out-of-market games. Seeing every Sunday afternoon game is a separate product. See out-of-market games.
- Prices and trials change. Always confirm current terms on the provider’s page.
