Yes. YouTube TV has NFL RedZone, but only through the NFL RedZone with Sports Plus add-on, which YouTube TV lists at $10.99 a month as of October 2026. You add it on top of a YouTube TV plan, and you can't buy RedZone on its own.
RedZone isn't part of the main YouTube TV plan or the Sports Plan. It sits inside a bundle of extra sports networks, so paying for it gets you a whole package, not just one channel.
What the NFL RedZone with Sports Plus add-on includes
YouTube TV's help page lists these channels in the package:
- NFL RedZone
- beIN SPORTS and beIN SPORTS XTRA
- Billiard TV
- FanDuel TV
- Fight Network
- FOX Soccer Plus
- Impact Wrestling
- RACER Network
- Outside
- Overtime
- PlayersTV
- PokerGO+
- SportsGrid
- Stadium
- Tennis Channel
- VSiN
- Willow
YouTube TV's plans page describes it as 13+ additional sports networks. You also get the same YouTube TV features on these channels: you can record games with unlimited DVR, and you can hide scores on a team or league page so nothing spoils a game you've recorded.
The two catches YouTube TV mentions
- No single channels. The networks in this package aren't available as individual add-ons. If you only want Tennis Channel, you still buy the whole bundle.
- The free-trial trap. If you've had a free trial of the FOX Soccer Plus add-on in the past, YouTube TV says you won't be eligible for a free trial of NFL RedZone with Sports Plus.
How to add RedZone to YouTube TV
- Go to tv.youtube.com on a web browser and sign in.
- Select your profile photo, then Settings, then Membership.
- Select ADD next to NFL RedZone with Sports Plus. The price shows beside it.
- Select Purchase to finish.
On a smart TV, open the YouTube TV app, select the store icon next to your profile photo, choose the network and select Add network. YouTube TV says that if you add it partway through a month, you pay a prorated amount up to your next billing date, then it's billed with your membership.
If you're billed by a mobile carrier or internet provider, YouTube TV says changes to your subscription go through that billing platform instead.
RedZone, Sunday Ticket and the Sports Plan: which do you need?
| Option | What it gives you | Price listed (Oct 2026) |
|---|---|---|
| NFL RedZone with Sports Plus | The NFL RedZone channel from NFL Network, plus the extra sports networks above | $10.99 a month on top of a plan |
| NFL Sunday Ticket | Out-of-market Sunday afternoon games in full | Separate purchase on top of a YouTube TV plan |
| Sports Plan | Sports networks from the main plan plus your local channels | $64.99 a month |
They do different jobs. RedZone is one channel from NFL Network inside a bundle of sports networks. Sunday Ticket is the product YouTube TV sells for out-of-market Sunday afternoon games. YouTube TV's Sports Plan page suggests pairing the Sports Plan with Sunday Ticket, because the Sports Plan carries your local NBC, CBS, Fox and ABC stations for in-market games. Sunday Ticket also needs an active YouTube TV plan, and YouTube TV says you lose it if you cancel. The figures for that are in the NFL Sunday Ticket price guide.
Billing: add-ons keep their own date
One detail from YouTube TV's plans help page: if you switch your main plan, your add-ons carry over automatically, but the add-on billing date stays on its original monthly cycle while the main plan's billing date moves to the day you switch. So you may see two charges on different days. That's normal, not a double charge.

Removing RedZone after the season
You don't have to cancel YouTube TV to drop the add-on. YouTube TV's cancel page notes that add-on networks can be removed individually, and its add-on page shows the same Membership screen is where you manage them. One warning from the plans page: if you cancel your whole YouTube TV plan, all add-ons are cancelled with it, so pause instead if you only want a break.
Add-ons depend on the base plan, which my page on the YouTube TV plans covers.
My verdict
If you watch Sunday football and want RedZone, the Sports Plus add-on is the only way to get it on YouTube TV, and it brings a stack of niche sports channels with it. Check your past trials first so the FOX Soccer Plus rule doesn't catch you, and if live sport is your main reason to subscribe, read my guide on watching sports on YouTube TV.
