The Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots are set to take the field at Levi’s Stadium on Sunday night for a Super Bowl showdown, but if you’re a fan of one of the league’s other 30 leagues, you’re probably already looking forward to next season. Luckily, YouTube TV isn’t keeping a single football fan waiting, because you can already purchase NFL Sunday Ticket for the 2026 season.
As announced on the official YouTube TV subreddit, NFL Sunday Ticket is up for purchase, and if you’re a new subscriber, you can save a pretty penny by buying in early. New subscribers pay just $192 for the season, which equals out to around $11 per week of the 18-week regular game stretch. If you aren’t a YouTube TV subscriber, you can opt to sign up through YouTube’s Primetime Channels initiative for $240. Both options include Redzone as an add-on for $42.
If you’re a returning member, as usual, you’re going to have to shell out a lot more for access. YouTube TV subscribers will pay $378 for the season (or around $21 per week), while Primetime Channel access will run you a whopping $480. Google does support 12-month installment plans for this service — hilarious, considering the NFL’s regular season only runs for about four months — and warns that, for anyone with auto-renew, your membership usually renews in August. You have the opportunity to pay ahead of time if you’d like, but it won’t get you any deals in return.
YouTube is only allowing customers to purchase their Sunday Ticket subscriptions through a web browser at the moment, so both Android and iOS users will need to leave their respective YouTube TV or YouTube apps to finish cashing out. Just make sure you’ll really want it ahead of the 2026 season — once you pay, your subscription isn’t refundable. And hey, if you aren’t a football fan, you can always tune in Sunday night for the ads.
