How To Watch NFL Plus on Samsung TV
You’re looking to watch NFL+ on your Samsung TV. While NFL+ is primarily designed for mobile devices, you do have some options for watching it on your TV.
Here’s the breakdown:

• Check for the app: Some newer Samsung Smart TVs might have the NFL app available in their app store.
- Press the Home button on your Samsung remote.
- Navigate to the Apps section.
- Search for the NFL app.
- If it’s available, install it and sign in with your NFL+ account.
• Limitations: Even if you find the NFL app, be aware that some NFL+ features (like live game replays) might be limited to phones and tablets due to NFL broadcasting restrictions.
2. Streaming Devices (Recommended)
• Most Reliable Option: If the NFL app isn’t available or fully functional on your Samsung TV, the most reliable way to watch NFL+ is with a streaming device.
• Popular Choices:
- Roku: Roku streaming sticks and boxes are affordable and have the NFL app.

• How to use:
- Connect the device: Plug the streaming device into an HDMI port on your Samsung TV.
- Install the NFL app: Download the NFL app from the device’s app store.
- Sign in: Log in with your NFL+ credentials.
3. Casting (Limited Functionality)
• From your phone or tablet: If you have an NFL+ subscription on your phone or tablet, you might be able to cast some content to your Samsung TV.
- Check your TV’s compatibility: Make sure your Samsung TV supports casting (look for features like “Smart View” or “Screen Mirroring”).
- Open the NFL app: Start the content you want to watch on your phone or tablet.
- Cast to your TV: Look for the casting icon (usually a rectangle with a Wi-Fi symbol) in the NFL app and select your Samsung TV.
• Limitations: Casting might not work for all NFL+ content, especially live games.
