The NFL remains one of the most popular professional sports leagues in the United States — and world — in large part because of NFL RedZone. Chris Hanson's Sunday afternoon program, which proudly airs "seven hours of commercial-free football" each week and shows every single touchdown, has become the king of the football-watching experience.
RedZone works for a multitude of reasons. For one, it cuts out the annoying ads that plague most single-game broadcasts. When a game cuts to commercial, RedZone cuts away from that game and takes the audience to the next-best game action. It's nonstop football, with none of the tiresome breaks.
That also makes it easy for fantasy football fans to track their players, as they're witnessing the biggest plays and 100 percent of the touchdowns without any semblance of commercial interruption.
The best part: NFL fans don't need cable to access RedZone. Thanks to the advent of numerous streaming services that carry the channel, cord-cutting revolutionaries can also join the seven-hour watch party each Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.
Of course, keeping track of which services carry what can be confusing these days. For those interested in joining the masses who enjoy NFL RedZone each year, here's everything you need to know.
NFL RedZone streams, explained
There are plenty of ways for NFL fans to catch NFL RedZone without cable. The program is carried by several streaming services, so viewers will have options as they look to see Hanson in action for seven hours of commercial-free football.
Fubo, which comes with a free trial , is among the networks that provide consumers with NFL Network, while NFL RedZone can be added to the package as part of the Sports-plus add-on. They are joined by NFL+, Hulu Plus Live TV, Sling TV and YouTube TV.
Streaming option | Free? | Cost | Free trial? |
NFL+ | No | $6.99/month | Yes |
Fubo | No | $74.99/month | Yes |
Hulu Plus Live TV | No | $69.99/month | Yes |
Sling TV | No | $40/month | No |
YouTube TV | No | $72.99/month | Yes |
DirecTV Stream | No | $64.99/month | Yes |
NFL RedZone free stream
Several streaming services come with a free trial, but Fubo's is unique compared to the others. Why? Because NFL RedZone is included as part of its free trial despite being a part of a premium package upgrade.
Fubo will provide viewers with access to all non-Amazon Prime NFL games during the 2023 NFL season. That includes "Sunday Night Football," "Monday Night Football" and the Sunday afternoon contests airing in your local market.
Fubo also has access to NFL Network programming.
What channel is NFL RedZone on?
One of the benefits of streaming is that you no longer have to remember the NFL RedZone channel number. However, those with cable will still have to jog their respective memories about the channel in order to find the program.
Below are NFL RedZone's channel listings on each major cable provider:
Provider | Channel |
Verizon Fios | 335 (SD) or 835 (HD) |
DirecTV | 703 |
Xfinity | 390 (SD) or 899 (HD) |
Dish TV | 155 |
Spectrum | 2495 |
How much does NFL RedZone cost?
The cost of NFL RedZone will vary depending on which streaming service you are using. The cheapest option will be to utilize NFL+, which includes RedZone as part of its premium package. Streamers will only have to pay $14.99 per month for that but will only have access to NFL Network programming and select national games.
Those looking for a better-rounded streaming option can turn elsewhere. Most of the major streamers make RedZone available with an add-on; these add-ons range in price from $9.99 to $15 per month.
Below is a look at how much the NFL RedZone add-on costs for each of the major streaming services and what the total cost of each service would be in addition to the base package.
