How To Stream NFL For Free Online

As football season approaches, fans everywhere are preparing to watch every touchdown, tackle, and exciting moment, hopefully without breaking the bank. Gone are the days of being tethered to your TV set while trying to adjust the antenna to get as clear a picture as possible, although there's nothing wrong with that if that's your thing. Streaming, on the other hand, gives you the flexibility to watch the NFL the way you want when you want, be it on a big-screen TV or a portable device.

Given the numerous platforms available, there are plenty of options at various price points, including free. Whether you've cut the cord or simply prefer the convenience of watching games on your handheld device on the go, rest assured there's a way to stay connected to all the on-the-field action. So, before you light up the grill and settle in for some Sunday night football, let's make sure you're set with the best streaming options. Here's our guide to streaming the NFL free online.
