Additionally, YouTube TV is the exclusive provider of NFL Sunday Ticket for out-of-market games. If you are filling specific gaps without a full live TV package, standalone apps are essential. The FOX One app covers the bulk of the Vikings' Sunday afternoon NFC matchups, Paramount+ streams any games broadcast on CBS, and Peacock is required for NBC's Sunday Night Football or exclusive Saturday games.

How to stream Minnesota Vikings games out-of-market
If you live outside the Minnesota broadcasting area, your local FOX and CBS affiliates will usually air different regional matchups instead of the Vikings' Sunday afternoon games.
For the 2026 season, YouTube retains the exclusive rights to NFL Sunday Ticket, which is the only way to watch live, out-of-market Sunday afternoon games. You can purchase NFL Sunday Ticket à la carte through YouTube Primetime Channels without needing a broader cable or streaming package. Alternatively, if you also want a comprehensive live TV package for local channels and sports networks, you can add Sunday Ticket to a base YouTube TV subscription.

NFL Sunday Ticket only includes Sunday afternoon games originally broadcast on FOX and CBS. Out-of-market restrictions do not apply to nationally televised games, meaning everyone in the country needs the same platforms to watch the Packers on primetime:
