The 2023 National Football League campaign is here, and there are will be countless games every week to keep you occupied until February.
But figuring out where to go to watch your favorite team play is a little different this season and beyond.
YouTube and YouTube TV is now the home for the NFL Sunday Ticket package for at least the next seven years, as Google outbid Amazon and ESPN and won the rights for it in December of 2022. It came at a hefty cost, too, as YouTube is set to pay $2 billion a year over the seven-year span, according to The Wall Street Journal.
That means DirectTV is no longer the home of such services, as it had been since 1984 when NFL Sunday Ticket initially launched.
So, here's what to know to catch the NFL action in 2023:
