Sports fans are in for a treat with DIRECTV sweetening their current deal in time for peak sports season. Cord cutters can get the DIRECTV Entertainment streaming package for just $49.99 for their first month, plus a 5-day free trial and $10 off your 2nd and 3rd month.

Typically, customers would see the Entertainment package priced at $84.99/month (before taxes and fees). With the current offering, this same package is being offered at a $35 discount for the first month.

Start Your DIRECTV Free Trial

What’s Included — Sports and More

  • Over 90+ channels, including local networks and RSNs (where available)
  • Access to ESPN, FOX, NBC, and other national networks broadcasting NFL, CFB, MLB and more
  • Streaming flexibility: unlimited in-home streams, mobile/tablet/TV access, and cloud DVR capabilities

For sports fans looking for more than the 90+ channels that come with the Entertainment package, you can upgrade to higher tiers ranging from 125+ channels (Choice) to 160+ channels (Ultimate) with even more coverage and still get $35 off your first month.

If the Entertainment package is too much after your first month but you don’t want to miss out on any CFB or NFL coverage, check out the new Genre Packs by DIRECTV. The MySports plan may have what you’re looking for.

What To Do Next?

While this deal may seem too good to be true, it’s not—but it won’t be around for long. Sign up to catch upcoming NFL and CFB matchups as well as the MLB Playoffs kicking off. The NBA and NHL are also back in about a month. Don’t wait—take advantage of this DIRECTV deal and make the most of your sports streaming to close out 2025.
