What Channel is NFL Network on Spectrum?

NFL Network is on channel 310 on Spectrum in most major U.S. cities — including New York, Los Angeles, Charlotte, and San Antonio. But that number shifts depending on where you live. Spectrum doesn’t assign one universal channel number across all service areas, so your city may use a completely different number.

This guide gives you the exact channel number for NFL Network on Spectrum, city by city, updated for 2026. It also covers NFL RedZone numbers, which Spectrum plan includes NFL Network, and what to do if the channel isn’t showing up.

Channel numbers on Spectrum are tied to your regional lineup, not your plan. Two customers on the same Spectrum plan in different cities will see NFL Network on different numbers. The variation comes from legacy cable infrastructure inherited through Spectrum’s acquisitions over the years.

Which Spectrum Plan Includes NFL Network?

TV Select Signature

This is Spectrum’s entry-level English-language plan, starting at $100/mo in 2026. It includes 150+ channels — and NFL Network is included in this base plan. You don’t need to upgrade just to get NFL Network.

TV Select Plus

At $110/mo, this plan adds 160+ channels including Regional Sports Networks (RSNs), MLB Network, NBA TV, and NFL Network. Good option if you also want to watch local team broadcasts on your RSN. If you want to check what other sports channels come with this tier, the CBS Sports Network on Spectrum guide breaks down the sports lineup.

TV Platinum

The top cable tier at $145/mo. Includes everything in TV Select Plus plus STARZ and premium content. NFL Network is included here as well.

Sports View Add-On — Required for NFL RedZone

The Sports View pack costs $10/mo and is the only way to get NFL RedZone on Spectrum. It also adds ESPNews, NBA TV, MLB Network, Golf Channel, NHL Network, Big Ten Network, and others. You can add it on top of any Spectrum TV plan.

Can’t Find NFL Network? Here’s What to Do

Channel numbers on Spectrum occasionally shift when the provider updates its regional lineups. If you’re hitting a blank screen or “channel unavailable,” try these steps.

Search the Spectrum TV App

Open the Spectrum TV App on your Roku, Apple TV, or smart TV. Use the search bar and type “NFL Network.” The app pulls your channel lineup based on your account ZIP code, so it will show the correct number for your area regardless of what this guide lists.

Use the On-Screen Guide

Press the Guide button on your Spectrum remote. Type “NFL” in the search bar. The guide reflects your real-time regional channel lineup and updates automatically when Spectrum makes changes.

Look Up Your Channel by ZIP Code at Spectrum.net

Go to spectrum.com, navigate to TV → Channel Lineup, and enter your service ZIP code. This gives you the exact, current channel list for your address. It takes about 30 seconds and is the most reliable method when a channel seems to have moved.

If your remote isn’t responding or you’re having trouble navigating channels, the remote code finder tool can help you set up a universal remote or troubleshoot your Spectrum remote quickly.

How to Watch NFL Network on Spectrum Without a Cable Box

If you’re cutting the cord or don’t want a traditional cable setup, you have several options to keep NFL Network.

Spectrum TV Stream ($45/mo)

Spectrum’s own streaming product. No cable box required — you watch entirely through the Spectrum TV App. NFL Network is included. This is the simplest option if you already have Spectrum Internet and want to drop the cable box rental fee.

NFL+ ($6.99–$14.99/mo)

NFL+ is the NFL’s own streaming service. The base plan at $6.99/mo gives you live access to NFL Network, local and primetime games on mobile devices, live audio, and on-demand highlights. Upgrade to NFL+ Premium at $14.99/mo to add NFL RedZone and full game replays on all devices — not just mobile.

This is the lowest-cost way to watch NFL Network if you don’t need a full TV package.

What’s on NFL Network?

NFL Network runs 24/7, year-round. It’s not just a game channel — it covers the full NFL calendar.

Live games: NFL Network airs select preseason games, some regular-season matchups, and most NFL International Series games played in London and Frankfurt.

Year-round programming:

  • Good Morning Football — Daily morning show, now based in Los Angeles at NFL HQ in Inglewood
  • NFL GameDay — In-season game coverage and analysis
  • NFL The Insiders — Reporting and news
  • A Football Life — Long-form player documentaries
  • NFL 360 — Feature storytelling
  • NFL Top 100 — Player rankings series
  • NFL Replay — Full-game replays

Offseason events: NFL Combine, NFL Draft, Senior Bowl, HBCU Legacy Bowl, and training camp coverage keep the channel active from February through August.

NFL Network also streams on The Roku Channel via an extended Good Morning Football segment called GMFB: Overtime, which runs weekday mornings at 10:00 a.m. ET.

If you enjoy the NFL Draft and want a broader sports channel to compare, the MLB Network on Spectrum guide covers another major sports network with similar year-round programming.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Spectrum carry NFL Network? Yes. NFL Network is included in all major Spectrum TV plans — TV Select Signature, TV Select Plus, and TV Platinum. You don’t need an add-on to watch NFL Network. The add-on (Sports View, $10/mo) is only required for NFL RedZone.

What plan do I need for NFL RedZone on Spectrum? Any Spectrum TV plan works as a base, but you must add the Sports View channel pack for $10/mo to access NFL RedZone. RedZone is not included in any standard Spectrum cable plan on its own.

Why is NFL Network not showing on my Spectrum? The most common reasons are a channel lineup update, a plan that doesn’t include the channel, or a signal refresh needed on your cable box. Unplug your cable box for 60 seconds and plug it back in. If it still doesn’t appear, search for it by name in the Spectrum TV App or check your ZIP code-based lineup at spectrum.com.

Is NFL Network free with Spectrum? It’s included at no extra charge in Spectrum’s base TV plans — but those plans start at $100/mo, so it’s not free in isolation. If you want NFL Network at the lowest possible cost, NFL+ at $6.99/mo is the most affordable standalone option.

What is the difference between NFL Network and NFL RedZone on Spectrum? NFL Network is a 24/7 channel with games, analysis, and original programming year-round. NFL RedZone airs only on Sundays during the regular NFL season and shows live, commercial-free cut-ins to every game’s most important plays. They’re on different channel numbers and require different access levels on Spectrum.

What other sports channels are on Spectrum? Beyond NFL Network, Spectrum carries ESPN, CBS Sports Network, Fox Sports 1, NBC Sports, NBA TV, MLB Network, and more across its plans. You can look up individual channels — like NBA TV on Spectrum or TBS on Spectrum — for exact channel numbers in your city.

Channel numbers and pricing are accurate as of April 2026. Spectrum updates its regional lineups periodically. Always verify your exact channel number using the Spectrum TV App or the channel lookup tool at spectrum.com.
