NFL fans this season will have a few more reasons to check out NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube TV. In addition to it being the only way to watch all of Sunday’s out-of-market games from the comfort of your own home, this season also will include integration with a couple of Fantasy Football providers, as well as improved multiview options.

The improved multiview will be available in the YouTube TV app on TVs, mobile devices, and tablets. And those who watch via YouTube proper will get it on mobile devices and tablets only — still no web browser access.
Also this season, be on the lookout for the new YouTube player experience on Sunday Ticket on YouTube TV, including live stats and scores from other games, spoiler mode so you can avoid spoilers, and more advanced playback controls, like the broadcast delay option, and the last-channel shortcut — which lead the way in terms of YouTube tips and tricks we use every day.

Technically you’re talking $379 for the season, but if you sign up before August 29, you’ll get a little bit of a discount, with Google billing you $146 for four months before dropping down to the usual
