The Buffalo Bills 2025 NFL season is locked in, following the official NFL Schedule Release on May 14, and it looks like another thrilling season ahead for Josh Allen and the Bills. Buffalo starts its season at home against the Ravens on September 7, as the march to the 2026 NFL Playoffs begins.

Bills fans will be able to tune in to the 2025 NFL Season via live stream online or on TV. But navigating the best place to watch every Buffalo Bills NFL game can be complicated.

Buffalo Bills games don’t always air on the same channel, and some are even exclusive to live TV streaming services. Cord cutters also have to figure out which live TV streaming services, such as DirecTV (free trial) and fuboTV (free trial), have which channels.

STREAM: Buffalo Bills football on fuboTV (free trial).

The guide below will be updated to help fans stream every Buffalo Bills game during the 2025-26 NFL season, as the schedule becomes revealed later this year. It includes the full schedule of games with streaming options, TV channels, times, dates and more information.

What is the best live TV streaming service for the Buffalo Bills?

When it comes to streaming services, there are several that will have you mostly covered for the season, but none that will give you everything. At a minimum, fans will need a comprehensive streaming service like DirecTV or fuboTV, plus Amazon Prime Video, in order to get every single game this season.

Here’s what you need to know about each streaming service:

fuboTV is currently the best option for Buffalo Bills fans, and has every game that appears on FOX, CBS, NBC and ESPN. It carries local stations in most markets. The service currently starts at $64.99 for the first month, then $84.99 per month afterward, and no additional add-ons are required. Fubo’s basic service includes over 210 channels and unlimited DVR space.

DirecTV (free trial) and carries all relevant channels at the Choice Package level, and starts at $59.99 for a month, then $89.99 monthly after. A dispute with Disney briefly removed ESPN from the service last season, but was resolved once the companies reached an agreement. DirecTV starts with a free trial. You’ll want to check local channel availability, as local contracts can sometimes impact availability. DirecTV includes 125+ channels, Unlimited DVR storage and thousands of on-demand titles.

Hulu + Live TV (free trial) is essentially the same service as fuboTV, from a Bills fan’s perspective, and it has some tempting perks to consider. Subscribers get Hulu, ESPN Plus and Disney Plus included in their base price of $82.99 per month, which more than makes up for the shorter, three-day free trial. Hulu + Live TV includes more than 95 channels and Unlimited DVR storage.

Sling is a cheap option (just $46 a month), but it gives you a comparatively small slate of games. Fans will need an HD Antenna, like this one, in order to access local channels like CBS, FOX and NBC. Sling is currently offering half off its first month of service. Fans will need to choose Sling Orange to get ESPN channels. Sling Blue offers NFL Network, but the Bills are not slated for any NFLN games this season. Fans can combine Orange and Blue for a higher rate.

Prime Video (free trial) is a necessary addition for fans who want the most comprehensive NFL coverage this season. Once again, Amazon has rights to every Thursday Night Football game in 2025, including two Buffalo Bills games. Anyone who is a fan of primetime football will want this service, however, as it will air the first game of the week, every week, all season long.

Paramount Plus (free trial) is actually a strong option for Bills fans in market who are looking to cut costs. It will carry all eight Bills games on CBS this season, plus in-market NFL broadcasts on CBS for all other teams, making for a good chunk of games. If you have premium service like fuboTV or DirecTV, this is an unnecessary addition. However, paired with Prime, ESPN+ and Peacock, NFL fans can get a wide selection of games each week without paying for a full cable or live TV subscription, and more than half the complete 2025-26 Bills schedule.

ESPN Plus does not offer a free trial, but for the fan who is looking for some regular NFL coverage without paying premium TV service rates, ESPN Plus does carry Monday Night Football games all season long. It costs $11.99 per month, and can be bundled with other Disney services, however, if you have any of the other services above (except Prime Video and Paramount), anything ESPN Plus would give you is already covered.

Peacock is like ESPN Plus above, but for Sunday Night Football games on NBC, instead of MNF on ESPN. For a la cart viewing, its worth considering (the Bills have two such games this year), but for anyone else, it’s an easy skip.

NFL Plus is also worth mentioning, especially for Bills fans out of market. NFL Plus gives fans live, out-of-market NFL games all season, plus NFL Network and game audio, and starts at just $6.99/month. There is no free trial available, but for Bills fans outside the broader Buffalo market, it could be your best viewing solution, and come at a much cheaper price than the other options above.
