Key Takeaways

  • YouTube’s “NFL Sunday Ticket” subscribers will now be able to watch four games simultaneously.
  • The 2024 NFL season will be the second since Google’s seven-year, roughly $14 billion deal to bring the service to YouTube TV.
  • A federal judge recently threw out a jury’s $4.7 billion award to “NFL Sunday Ticket” subscribers.

YouTube is rolling out upgrades for “NFL Sunday Ticket,” including the ability for subscribers to watch up to four games simultaneously and track their fantasy football teams alongside the games.

The new features come ahead of the second football season since Alphabet’s Google (GOOGL) and the NFL signed a seven-year, roughly $14 billion deal to bring the service to YouTube TV. Prior to the 2023 season, “NFL Sunday Ticket” had been distributed by DirecTV for decades. 

Judge Recently Threw Out $4.7B ‘Sunday Ticket’ Verdict Against NFL

Earlier this month, a federal judge threw out a jury’s verdict against the NFL that would’ve required the league to pay $4.7 billion to “NFL Sunday Ticket” subscribers. The lawsuit accused the league of inflating prices for the service, which is fans’ only option to watch out-of-market games.

Now, “NFL Sunday Ticket” subscribers will be able to connect their Yahoo Fantasy accounts via the “Fantasy View” feature and monitor live statistics alongside the games. They also will have the ability to “build any available combination of two, three, or four” games to view simultaneously.
