Fubo Sports will make a play for football fans' dollars on September 2

<p>Fubo is making a move to attract new subscribers ahead of the NFL season. The company's new Fubo Sports bundle includes content from ESPN, Fox and local affiliates. The football-friendly package costs $56 monthly.</p>
<p>Fubo Sports includes over 20 sports and broadcast networks. You get <a data-i13n="cpos:1;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/streaming/espns-new-streaming-service-arrives-august-21-150026297.html">all of ESPN's live channels[/url] (including ESPN+). As for Fox, it has FS1, FS2 and the curious inclusion (for a sports package) of Fox News. The bundle also has the ACC Network, Big 10 Network, CBS Sports Network, Fubo Sports Network, ION, NFL Network, SEC Network and the Tennis Channel.</p>
<span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>Additionally, Fubo Sports has local broadcast stations owned and operated by ABC, CBS and Fox. The company says additional affiliates will be available in select markets.</p>
<p>Fubo says some content will be available in 4K. It will support VOD, Unlimited DVR and Family Share features.</p>

<p>You can argue that Fubo's new sports package is the best value for football fans. At $56, it's pricier than the upcoming ESPN and Fox One bundle. (It <a data-i13n="elm:context_link;elmt:doNotAffiliate;cpos:2;pos:1" class="no-affiliate-link" href="https://espnpressroom.com/us/press-releases/2025/08/espn-dtc-and-fox-one-to-launch-combined-bundle-offer/">arrives[/url] on October 2 for $40.) By comparison, Fubo's package includes all the same sports channels, as well as local stations (and more). NFL and college football fans subscribing to this could also likely skip Paramount+'s sports content. The football completist would only need to add Peacock for NBC's Sunday night games and Amazon Prime for its <a data-i13n="cpos:3;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/nfl-11-year-broadcasting-deal-210704054.html">Thursday night matchups[/url].</p>
<p>Confused? Well, you aren't alone. In many ways, <a data-i13n="cpos:4;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/streaming/best-live-tv-streaming-service-133000410.html">live TV streaming[/url] has become at least as convoluted as the cable TV it once promised to improve upon. Start with something simple, insert high stakes for wealthy corporations and watch a complex web of head-spinning shit come out the other side.</p>
<p>Regardless, starting next week, you can try <a data-i13n="elm:context_link;elmt:doNotAffiliate;cpos:5;pos:1" class="no-affiliate-link" href="https://www.fubo.tv/welcome">Fubo Sports[/url] for $46 for your first month. After that, it defaults to the standard $56. The bundle arrives on September 2, two days before the NFL season kicks off.</p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/streaming/fubo-sports-will-make-a-play-for-football-fans-dollars-on-september-2-164847466.html?src=rss
