Updated: September 21, 2023

Safely and securely watch every Sunday Night Football game with ExpressVPN!

30-day money-back guarantee

NFL fans can end the weekend with a healthy dose of Sunday Night Football this fall. NBC’s Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth return as the lead announcers of a stacked Sunday Night Football slate, one which begins Sunday, September 10, when Saquon Barkley and the resurgent New York Giants host Dak Prescott and the rival Dallas Cowboys.

The 2023 NFL season will feature several changes to Sunday Night Football, including the first paywalled game on Peacock. When the Los Angeles Chargers host the Buffalo Bills in Week 16, only Peacock subscribers will be allowed to watch, though fans in local markets will likely be able to watch through a to-be-determined local channel. Additionally, Peacock will exclusively air a Wild Card Round playoff game on Saturday, January 13.

Even if you can’t be in the stadium live, ExpressVPN has you covered on how to safely and securely stream every Sunday Night Football game throughout the 2023 season.

How to watch Sunday Night Football with a VPN

Football fans can stream every Sunday Night Football game with ExpressVPN by following just a few simple steps:

  1. Get ExpressVPN.
  2. Connect to a U.S. server location.
  3. Head to Peacock or a free trial service that offers NBC, like YouTube TV or Fubo.
  4. Tune in and enjoy!

Watching on a computer? For the best streaming experience, use the ExpressVPN browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.

While you can watch the NFL all season long by connecting to a VPN server location in a country other than your own, doing so may violate copyright or infringe upon your streaming service’s Terms of Use and the ExpressVPN Terms of Service. As a security and privacy tool, ExpressVPN is designed so that no one can see or control what you do when connected to our VPN service—not even us. So you are responsible for verifying that your use complies with all relevant terms and laws.

Why do you need a VPN to watch Sunday Night Football?

Where to watch Sunday Night Football in 2023

Most Sunday Night Football games will air on NBC in 2023, though Peacock will have an exclusive Week 17 game and a standalone playoff game. You can find a complete guide on how to watch Sunday Night Football below.

U.S.

Peacock

Price: 6 USD/month

Peacock will offer a live simulcast of every Sunday Night Football game during the 2023 season. As mentioned earlier, Peacock will also air an exclusive Week 16 game (Los Angeles Chargers vs. Buffalo Bills) and a Wild Card Round game. 

YouTube TV

Price: 73 USD/month and up

Channels: NBC

Country: U.S.

YouTube TV offers a variety of channels that carry NFL games, including NBC for Sunday Night Football. The subscription costs 73 USD/month, and you may need to submit a U.S. zip code (e.g., 10022, 48104, etc.), but it accepts a wide array of payment options. If you don’t feel like committing to YouTube TV, use the free trial.

Also note that the U.S. version of NFL Game Pass, NFL Sunday Ticket, moved to YouTube for the 2023 season. Plans start at 300 USD for the season.

Note: You may need a valid U.S. credit/debit card or PayPal to subscribe to YouTube TV. You can still subscribe to YouTube TV via Google Play, even if you don’t have a U.S. credit/debit card.

Watching on a computer? For the best streaming experience, use the ExpressVPN browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.

DirecTV Stream

Price: 65 USD/month and up

Channels: NBC

DirecTV Stream is on the pricier side but if you prefer a cord-cutting service over an additional streaming app, it’s a great option. DirecTV’s lowest package starts at 65 USD/month (before jumping to its normal price of 75 USD/month after three months), and the service offers a 5-day free trial.

Hulu + Live TV

Price: 70 USD/month and up

Channels: NBC

Country: U.S.

Hulu+Live TV is another way to catch Sunday Night Football games, although it doesn’t come with a free trial. Games shown are not subject to regional availability or blackout restrictions. You may need to supply a valid U.S. postal code (e.g., 10012, 48104) and credit card.
