The 2025-2026 NFL regular season is over, and the playoffs have almost wrapped up! There are 285 NFL games (not including the preseason) needed to crown a Super Bowl champion, but just Super Bowl 2026 remains. Last year, I tracked every NFL live stream and which streaming services you need to watch all of them, and this season, I'm back to do it again.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of streaming services you'll need to watch every game this year. ESPN, Peacock, Prime Video, Netflix and even YouTube are all getting exclusive games this year, and Paramount+ offers a decent amount of the CBS games on Sundays. Even worse, you'll still need many of these to watch the playoffs.

February

At this point, there's only the Super Bowl left. Sure, the Pro Bowl exists, and will air on ESPN, but the players don't even pretend to play a full-contact exhibition anymore.

Super Bowl LX will be held on Sunday, Feb. 8, 2026, on NBC, with a 4K simulcast on Peacock Premium. That means it won't be available on a free streaming service this season, unlike last year's Super Bowl LIX, which was available to stream free on Tubi in select regions.

So the cheapest way to watch the Super Bowl is Peacock, which will set you back $10.99 a month. There are alternatives to watch the Big Game (more on that shortly), but Peacock will be the easiest way to stream it in 4K for less.

NBC's streaming service gives you access to Sunday Night Football from NBC as well as a few other games, including Super Bowl LX. It also offers coverage of the Olympics, Premier League soccer, WWE and more. There's also a huge library of movies and TV shows to enjoy between events.

If you want a more robust, cable TV-like experience, you want YouTube TV. This live TV streaming service gives you access to every NFL game on ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox and ESPN. Even better, YouTube TV is my pick for the best live TV streaming service.

The bad news? It's not cheap. If you're a new customer, you can get YouTube TV for $67.99 a month for your first five months, and then $82.99 a month after that. If you want to watch the Super Bowl in 4K, it'll be an additional $9.99 for the 4K Plus add-on.

However, if you're a new customer, you can get a free trial of YouTube TV, and you should be able to get a free trial for the 4K Plus add-on as well. So technically, this could be a good way to stream the Super Bowl for free if you cancel your trials in time. Just might not work for everyone.

The best streaming service for getting 2025-26 NFL livestreams, YouTube TV has all of the right network channels and lets you add NFL Sunday Ticket at a discounted rate. Limited time offer: Get YouTube TV for $67.99 a month for the first five months for a limited time.

If you want a cheaper way to get a lot of NFL games, Sling TV is an option — specifically, Sling Orange & Blue. This Sling TV package starts at $60.99, though right now, you can get your first month for $29.99. It offers your local broadcast stations in select markets (excluding CBS) and also offers ESPN.

It's a great cable TV alternative, and I'd know. I've tested them all. But not every market gets NBC, which you'll need to watch the Super Bowl this year.

Sling provides the cheapest way to watch most NFL games. Sling Orange is just $46 a month and gives you a ton of ESPN channels. Sling Blue also starts at $46 a month and offers local ABC, FOX and NBC channels in select cities, as well as NFL Network. You can combine both plans for as little as $61, but for a limited time, you can score 51% off your first month of Sling Orange and Blue.

There is an alternative if you don't want to get a subscription to a service. By using one of our best antennas, you can get NBC broadcasts free over the air, provided your local station is showing them. Check out our full guide on how to watch Super Bowl 2026 with an antenna for more details.

So, if you can get a free trial to YouTube TV or already have an antenna, you can watch every NFL game this month for free, which is great! Otherwise, you'll need to pony up $10.99 for Peacock Premium to watch the Super Bowl, though afterward, you can watch "Ponies."

February total: $10.99

How much it'll cost

To recap, you'll need Peacock to watch Super Bowl 2026, the last game of the NFL season. That's way cheaper than buying a ticket to watch the Big Game in person.

TOTAL: $10.99

Discounts

I already covered discounts from YouTube TV and Sling that can save you money, but often cable providers and mobile network providers will offer discounts on various streaming services to customers. If I see any additional discounts of note, I'll be sure to update this article accordingly.
