The NFL is officially back, meaning it's time to get glued to your couch and catch some football action on Sundays.
There's arguably no better way to do so than with NFL Sunday Ticket, which provides live, out-of-market viewing for games that are outside of the national windows on Sundays.
Catching some of those games can be a challenge for those with cable packages, or for college students who are away from their favorite team's market. But how much does NFL Sunday Ticket cost for 2025?

The price of NFL Sunday Ticket, and RedZone, significantly varies depending on whether or not you're also subscribed to YouTube TV, as well as if you're a student.
This year, new Sunday Ticket customers will pay $276, or eight payments of $34.50 a month, for the platform whether they get YouTube TV or not. A total of $42 is added if RedZone is added, and if users are also signing up for YouTube TV, then that base plan is also added in. YouTube TV typically offers promotional periods to begin a subscription, then goes to around $83 per month.
For returning subscribers, it'll cost $480 to get NFL Sunday Ticket (or $522 with RedZone) if you pay in total as a non-YouTube TV subscriber, or $60 a month. If you are also a returning YouTube TV subscriber, then that total falls to $378 in total (or $420 with RedZone), which equates to $47.25 a month.

How to get NFL Sunday Ticket student discount
NFL Sunday Ticket is available for college students at a lower cost than it is for the general public. But how can students take advantage of that discount?
Students seeking to take advantage of the NFL Sunday Ticket discount can go to YouTube's page for the student plan, and click "Get This Deal" to start the process of subscribing with a discount. One will have to decide if they're adding the RedZone package as well, and also have to verify their status as a student.
Anyone using a student discount on NFL Sunday Ticket can only watch on one device at a time, though one device can display as many as four games with multi-view.
