After a successful first year, it’s clear that having NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube and YouTube TV has been a hit. Whether it’s the increase in direct subscriptions, the addition of new YouTube TV subscribers, or the advertising revenue generated by one of the biggest sports in the US, the impact is undeniable.
For users, the most important aspect is the ability to watch out-of-market NFL games without the need for a long-term contract or a satellite dish. This is the essence of the new era of NFL Sunday Ticket, which enters its second season on YouTube and YouTube TV in 2024.
How much does NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube cost?
There are a few options for purchasing NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube, including a special plan for students.
If you have a YouTube TV subscription, which currently costs $73 per month, you can add NFL Sunday Ticket for $349 per season. Until September 19, there is a $50 discount available, bringing the price down to $299.
If you prefer to purchase an NFL Sunday Ticket without YouTube TV (via YouTube Primetime Channels), it will cost $449 per season. The $50 discount also applies to Primetime Channels, making the current price $399.
If you want to bundle NFL RedZone with NFL Sunday Ticket (with or without YouTube TV), it will cost an additional $40. This brings the total to $339 and $439, respectively.
YouTube now offers a monthly payment plan option for NFL Sunday Ticket. Instead of paying in one lump sum, you can split the cost into four payments. You pay the first 25% upon sign-up and then 25% each month for the next three months. However, this option is not available in the following states: Georgia, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Nevada, and Tennessee.
There is also a special discount for college students. They can purchase NFL Sunday Ticket for $109, or $119 with Red Zone. However, the student plan has limitations, such as streaming on only one device at a time and not being eligible for family sharing.
How will NFL Sunday Ticket be different on YouTube?
The main feature of NFL Sunday Ticket, which is watching out-of-market Sunday regular-season games, remains the same on YouTube. However, there are some differences that veteran subscribers will notice.
The Game Mix channel, which allowed for viewing eight NFL games simultaneously, will no longer be available. Instead, YouTube will offer its own multiview service for NFL Sunday Ticket, allowing viewers to watch up to four games at the same time. Subscribers will have access to “curated multiview streams,” but it’s unclear if they’ll be able to choose the specific games they want to watch.
Other differences are mainly related to pricing and subscriptions. The need for DirecTV service, two-year contracts, and satellite dishes is eliminated. However, there doesn’t appear to be a free trial period, unlike DirecTV, which used to offer the first week of NFL Sunday Ticket at no cost.
