How to Watch NFL Football on Your Phone

You can watch NFL football on your phone by downloading the NFL Mobile app. The app is available for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices.

Introduction

In this article, we’ll show you how to watch NFL football on your phone. We’ll walk you through the steps of downloading the NFL app, choosing your favorite team, and watching live games. We’ll also give you some tips on finding other ways to watch NFL football on your phone.

How to Watch the NFL on your Phone

If you’re looking to watch NFL football on your phone, you have a few options. You can download the NFL app, which will let you watch live games, as well as access on-demand content and NFL RedZone. You can also sign up for a streaming service like Sling TV or FuboTV, which will give you access to live games. If you have a cable subscription, you can also use the WatchESPN app to watch live games.

Live Streams

You can find a number of ways to stream NFL games online, but if you want to watch on your phone, there are a few options.

If you have a cable or satellite subscription that includes NFL Network, you can download the app and sign in with your provider’s information to watch live games and other programming.

Verizon customers can also watch live NFL games on their phones through the NFL Mobile app. To use the app, you’ll need to sign in with your Verizon account information.

There are also a number of apps and websites that offer free (and legal) streams of NFL games. To find these, you’ll need to search for them yourself, as we cannot link to them here. However, a good place to start is with the official NFL app, which often has links to free streams of live games.

Official NFL App

The National Football League (NFL) has its own official app, which you can download for free on iOS and Android. This is a great option if you want to watch NFL games on your phone, as it gives you access to live out-of-market preseason games, live Thursday Night Football games, and replays of every game all season long. You can also get live game audio, live game stats, and team schedules.

To use the NFL app, you’ll need a subscription to NFL Game Pass ($99 per year), which gives you access to all of the app’s features. If you’re not interested in subscribing to NFL Game Pass, you can still use the app to listen to live game audio, get live game stats, and check team schedules.

If you want to watch NFL games on your phone but don’t want to pay for a subscription to NFL Game Pass, there are a few other options available to you.

Unofficial/Third Party Apps

There are a number of unofficial or third-party apps that will also stream games, but they are highly unreliable and we do not recommend them. In the past, Periscope, Facebook Live, and other similar platforms have been used to stream games illegally, but it’s hard to tell if those streams will be live or not. Additionally, these apps are often taken down for violating copyright law. If you do choose to use one of these unofficial apps, be prepared for a subpar experience and potential legal ramifications.

On-Demand Replays and Highlights

If you want to watch a specific game or replay, the NFL offers Game Pass, which allows you to watch any NFL game dating back to the 2009 season on your phone. The service costs $99 per year, but there are often discounts available. You can also buy a single team’s season for $49.

In addition to game replays, the NFL also offers highlights packages for every game that you can watch on your phone. These highlights are typically available shortly after the game ends.

Official NFL App

The National Football League offers an official app for both iPhone and Android that lets you watch live NFL games, including Thursday Night Football, on your phone if you’re a Verizon Wireless customer. You can also watch on-demand video clips of NFL Network shows and replay every game of the season with Game Pass (requires a subscription).

Unofficial/Third Party Apps

There are a few unofficial/third party apps that will let you watch NFL games on your phone, but they come with a few catches. First and foremost, these apps are usually in violation of NFL copyright law, so they may not be available for long. Secondly, because these apps are usually free (or very cheap), they’re supported by ads, which means you’ll have to sit through commercials just like you would if you were watching on TV.

That said, if you’re willing to take the risk, there are a few apps that let you watch NFL games on your phone. The most popular is probably NFL Game Pass, which lets you watch any game after it’s been played. There’s also TuneIn Radio, which lets you listen to live radio broadcasts of NFL games (this is probably the safest option, since it doesn’t involve streaming video).

Of course, there’s always the illegal option of streaming pirated video of NFL games online. This is definitely against the law, and we don’t recommend it. But if you’re willing to risk it, there are a few sites that host streams of NFL games (we won’t link to them here for obvious reasons).

Conclusion

There are many ways to watch NFL football on your phone. You can use a streaming service like NFL Game Pass, sign up for a cable or satellite subscription that includes NFL Network, or download the official NFL Mobile app. You can also listen to live radio broadcasts of games through the NFL app.
