Tired of streaming NFL RedZone on a small mobile screen? Well, big news: NFL+ is now offering NFL RedZone for your phone and tablet And Your big screen TV.
Of course, the arrival of NFL RedZone on NFL+ comes with a sting: a price bump, with NFL+ Premium now costing $14.99 per month (up $5 per month), while NFL+ Standard is now priced at $6.99 per month (top 2). USD) a month), according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Even with the price increase, it’s still surprising to learn that NFL RedZone will be available to cord-cutters for a relatively reasonable price, and not just on phones and tablets anymore.
Previously, the only way to stream NFL RedZone independently was with a subscription that cost $35 per season.
That worked out to nearly $7 a month given the five-month NFL season, but there was a catch: You could only watch the NFL RedZone standalone service on your phone or tablet, not on your TV.
To be clear, NFL RedZone isn’t the same as NFL Sunday Ticket, which will be available via YouTube for $449 a season, or $349 with a YouTube TV subscription. (YouTube TV subscribers can also subscribe to NFL RedZone for an additional $40 per season.)
While Sunday Ticket offers live NFL action for Sunday games broadcast on CBS and Fox, NFL RedZone only covers important “red zone” plays during Sunday afternoon games, with frequent jumps from game to game.

NFL+ first launched last summer, with the base plan offering live local, regular NFL, and NFL postseason games only on phones and tablets. NFL+ content that you can also stream on NFL Network TV includes live out-of-market preseason games, live game audio, and NFL movies.
Upgrading to NFL+ Premium for $14.99 per month gets you all the content of the NFL+ base plan while adding NFL RedZone for phones, tablets, and TVs, along with intense, full game replays.
Annual NFL+ plans are also available ($39.99 per year for the Standard plan, or $79.99 for NFL+ Premiums), and you can also sign up for a 7-day free trial.
We’ve been mixed to negative on NFL+ in the past, with our own Jared Newman arguing NFL+ was skippable given the number of other ways to watch live NFL games on your phone.
But now that NFL RedZone is available on NFL+ — and on your TV, not just on your phones — we’re even more interested.
