Little was a sixth-round draft pick from Arkansas in 2024. He made 27 of 29 field-goal attempts as a rookie and all 27 extra points. His length was 59 yards. He seemed to know his latest one was good from the onset. He watched intently and pumped his fist as it slid a little left and cleared the crossbar by several yards, far enough that the ball boy caught it in the air.
How to watch the NFL in 2025: Streaming services, exclusive dates
The NFL is the most popular sport in the US. It is also among the most confusing to watch, thanks to a myriad of streaming services and exclusive online broadcasts. For those who still have an old-school cable subscription, most games played by the local team can be viewed on local affiliates. Many national games will also be available, but that’s not always the case.
Outside of cable, there are several streaming options to watch the NFL this fall. One popular route is YouTube TV combined with the NFL Sunday Ticket, which provides local stations plus many out‑of‑market games but costs about $276 for new subscribers and more for returning ones.
YouTube also has exclusive, free streaming rights to the Sept. 5 game in Brazil between the Los Angeles Chargers and Kansas City Chiefs. Other services such as Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, and DirecTV Stream offer many channels that carry local and national games.
Beyond those, league- and platform-specific services round out the options. The NFL’s own NFL+ offers live local and prime‑time regular‑season and postseason games, with a premium tier that adds replays and NFL RedZone access. Amazon Prime carries most Thursday Night Football games as part of a Prime membership ($14.99/month).
