What is the NFL RedZone channel?
NFL RedZone is a sports television channel owned and operated by NFL Network. Launched in 2009, it is named after the term "red zone", the part of the football field between the 20-yard line and the goal line. It broadcasts special game-day exclusives on NFL regular-season Sundays. RedZone provides "whip-around" simulcast coverage of all Sunday afternoon games airing in progress on CBS and Fox.
Where can I watch it for free?
You can access the NFL RedZone channel through the leading streaming services but it's not included in any standard plans.
While Fubo and DirecTV offer five-day free trials, you will still need to pay for the add-on.
Sling TV and YouTube TV also carry it but only as a paid add-on too.
