NFL network

DId Xfinity drop the NFL Network or are there talks still going on?  If still negotiating, when will service be restored.  If NFL network and NFL Redzone aren't back on in the near future, we're going to have to find another provider for our current services costing $316/month.  My spouse lives for football and this is 100% unacceptable.

I am paying $450.00 a month for this service. My best day is Sunday afternoon watching NFL red zone. Looking at Direct tv.

I will drop my Xfinity if I cannot watch football this year and go to satellite TV.

I've been thinking of dumping Xfinity. This would be the last straw.

Hi there @user_k13bjd Thank you so much for reaching out on our Xfinity Community Forum about NFL Network and NFL Redzone.  As of April 30, 2026, NFL Network and NFL RedZone are no longer available through Comcast's Xfinity service due to the expiration of their agreement with Disney/ESPN, which has not proposed a fair deal for Comcast customers. Consequently, all related programming, including Xfinity Stream and On Demand content, is also unavailable. Customers can still watch previously recorded content on their DVR, but new recordings of NFL programming cannot be made until the channels are restored. Alternative sports programming can be accessed through other networks like FS1 and ESPN, as well as various streaming services.  Please click the link below for more info.

Are we getting a sports package fee reduction because of the lack of NFL programming?  Football is the main reason we buy your sports package.

Good afternoon user_k13bjd.

Thanks for reaching out about NFL programming. The agreement to carry NFL Network expired, so it’s no longer available with Xfinity. This includes NFL RedZone and any related Xfinity Stream and On Demand programming.

 

Please know Comcast pays programmers to bring you the entertainment you love, and, so far, Disney/ESPN has not proposed a deal that Comcast believes is fair for its customers. Comcast continues to work toward bringing back this programming, but only with fair pricing, terms, and conditions for its customers.

 

I know unexpected changes to your TV lineup can be inconvenient. Thank you for understanding. For more information, you can visit xfinity.com/programmingchanges. Please let us know if you want to do an account review?

As a consumer, who can I contact at Xfinity or Disney and let them know how upsetting this is to me and hundreds of other viewers who do not have access to NFL Network. I don’t want to watch ESPN or other channels, I want NFL Network. What can the consumer do so the networks know how upset we are
