What Channel is NFL on DIRECTV 2023 Update?

The NFL is so vast that DIRECTV has several channels where you can watch games and team coverage. These are:

• NBC Sports
• Fox Sports 1
• NFL Network
• Fox Deportes
• CBS Sports
• Regional Sports Network (your lineup will depend on your location)

The broadcasting ecosystem of the NFL is dynamic and powerful. No matter who broadcasts the games the viewership is so high that several broadcasting empires have carved out a piece of the pie.

This year Super Bowl LVIII will be broadcast live on CBS and streamed on Paramount+. It will be the first Super Bowl to be broadcast under the new 11-year NFL television contract that begins a four-year rotation among CBS, Fox, NBC and ABC/ESPN. The 2023 Super Bowl had close to 113 million viewers. Depending on the game a Sunday Night audience can top 27 million viewers.

Where is the NFL Sunday Ticket?

After decades as the sole subscription TV partner for NFL Sunday Ticket this year DIRECTV ceded the reins to YouTube TV. NFL Sunday Ticket is a coverage package that offers regular season games including games not typically available on local TV channels. It includes all the regional Sunday afternoon games produced by FOX and CBS. In 2023 YouTube TV is the exclusive TV partner. EverPass Media, a new venture of the NFL, offers NFL Sunday Ticket to bars, restaurants, and other commercial spaces.
