How to watch the Giants 2026 season
Figuring out where to stream your favorite teams seems to get more complicated year after year — luckily, you have us.
Whatever your plans are for the next four months of Sundays (and the occasional Monday and Thursday), these are streamers you’re going to want to check out for full Giants coverage.
What channel are the Giants on?
Most Giants games air on FOX, which covers the bulk of the NFC lineup — but that’s not the only place games will be shown.
This year, Giants games will also be airing across CBS, ESPN, NBC, and Prime Video, so you’ll want to make sure you have access to all of these channels before kickoff.
| Channel | Number of games airing | Streamer option |
|---|---|---|
| FOX | 8 | DIRECTV (free trial) Fubo (free trial) Sling |
| CBS | 4 | Paramount+ DIRECTV (free trial) Fubo (free trial) |
| ESPN | 2 | ESPN Select Disney/Hulu/ESPN bundle ESPN/NFL+ bundle DIRECTV (free trial) Fubo (free trial) Sling |
| NBC | 1 | Peacock DIRECTV (free trial) Fubo (free trial) Sling |
| Prime Video | 1 | Amazon Prime |
What is the cheapest way to watch every Giants game this season?
With sports streaming getting more and more fragmented, it’s also getting more expensive, so the best way to watch it is (almost) always the cheapest.
Your best bet for streaming every Giants game? A subscription to either DIRECTV Choice or Fubo Sports + News, plus a Prime subscription for all-in-one coverage. These combos start between $70 to $80, depending on the one you choose.
| Best | Streamers | Price | Good for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best overall TV setup | DIRECTV + Prime | $80/month with DIRECTV Choice plan ($110 after first month) | Those looking for a setup with more than just sports-focused channels |
| Best sports-focused setup | Fubo + Prime | $70/month with Fubo Sports + News plan ($80 after first month) | Those looking for a sport-centric plan |
| Best for watching on your phone | NFL+ | $15/month | Those looking for on-the-go, in-market streaming |
| Best antenna-based setup | ESPN Unlimited + Prime | $35 initial investment on the antenna; then $47/month with streamers | Those looking for the cheapest overall option |
If you like to watch games on-the-go, you’ll want to check out NFL+, which comes in at $15/month. However, this only covers local in-market games (that means no access to exclusive ESPN or Prime games). Plus, you can only watch it on a phone or tablet — no casting to a TV.
Another work around? An HD antenna. The antenna is an investment that’ll last you years and it will cover local broadcasts of FOX, CBS and NBC. After that, the only things you’ll need are an ESPN Unlimited ($32/month) and Prime ($15/month) subscription. Like this, you can catch every Giants game for a fraction of what DIRECTV or Fubo costs.
Can I watch the Giants on StreamEast this year?
That’s going to be a no.
StreamEast was an illegal streaming platform that shut down in the fall of 2025. While a fan-favorite way to get free access to games, like most illegal streamers it had many downsides, including pop-ups, malware, poor picture quality and, you know, the illegal component.
Your best bet for free streaming? One of the free trials available from legal streamers like DIRECTV and Fubo.
