Does Paramount Plus Have Fox Sports?

A lot of the confusion here comes from the sheer number of streaming options, overlapping sports rights, and the fact that both Paramount+ and Fox Sports have been going through major changes at the same time. The questions below cover the situations people are actually searching for.

  Does Paramount Plus stream Fox Sports? No — Fox Sports, FS1, and FS2 are not available on Paramount Plus at any plan level · Paramount+ and Fox Corporation are separate companies with no content agreement

  This is the most important thing to know before subscribing: Paramount Plus and Fox Sports are run by different companies that do not share programming. Paramount+ is built around CBS Sports, which means you get NFL games that air on CBS, the UEFA Champions League, March Madness basketball, and now UFC. Fox Sports content — including FS1, FS2, Big Ten Network football, NASCAR, the World Cup on Fox, and college football on Fox — requires either a live TV streaming service like YouTube TV or Fubo, or Fox’s own standalone app Fox One. No plan tier on Paramount+ — not Essential at $8.99/month, not Premium at $13.99/month — includes any Fox Sports channel. This has been true since Paramount+ launched and has not changed.

  Where can you watch Fox Sports if not on Paramount+? Fox One standalone app: $19.99/month · YouTube TV Sports Plan: $64.99/month · Fubo: ~$56/month · Hulu + Live TV: $89.99/month · Sling Select: $19.99/month (limited markets) · ESPN + Fox One bundle coming

  Fox Sports content is available through several paths, at very different price points. The cheapest is Fox One — Fox Corporation’s own direct streaming app, launched in August 2025 — at $19.99/month. It includes FS1, FS2, Fox News, Fox Business, Fox Weather, Big Ten Network, Fox Deportes, and your local Fox affiliate. Fox One is where the Fox Sports app’s TV functionality moved in May 2026 when that app was retired. The Fox One mobile app still works on phones and tablets. For viewers who also want ESPN, NBC, or CBS sports alongside FS1, a live TV streaming service is the better value: YouTube TV’s Sports Plan ($64.99/month for existing subscribers, $54.99 for new users for the first year) covers essentially every major sports channel. Fubo is another strong sports-first option. An ESPN + Fox One bundle has been publicly confirmed as an upcoming product — watch for it if you specifically want Fox and ESPN without paying for a full channel package.

  Is Fox part of Paramount Plus? No — Fox Corporation and Paramount Global (now Paramount Skydance) are entirely separate companies · They compete directly in news, sports, and entertainment · No shared channels, no shared content

  It is easy to confuse the names because both “Fox” and “Paramount” have decades of Hollywood history and both operate major television networks. But they are separate publicly traded companies. Fox Corporation — which owns Fox News, FS1, the Fox broadcast network, and Fox One — has no ownership or programming relationship with Paramount. Paramount (now merged with Skydance and in the process of acquiring Warner Bros. Discovery) owns CBS, MTV, Nickelodeon, Showtime, and Paramount+. The confusion is compounded by the fact that both services carry NFL games — but on different days. Paramount+/CBS has Sunday afternoon NFL games and some Thursday Night Football. Fox broadcast has Sunday NFC games and is one of the NFL’s oldest partners. The games look similar but stream through completely different apps on completely different subscriptions.

  What live sports does Paramount Plus actually have? NFL on CBS (all games that air on your local CBS station) · UFC — all events, no PPV fee · UEFA Champions League & Europa League soccer · NCAA basketball including March Madness · NWSL women’s soccer · Serie A · Rugby World events

  Despite not having Fox Sports, Paramount+ has built a genuinely strong sports lineup that is often underestimated. The NFL package through CBS is the headline — every regular-season game that airs on your local CBS affiliate streams live on Paramount+, which is one of the best deals in streaming at $8.99/month for Essential. The UEFA Champions League is the other marquee property: every English-language UCL match streams on Paramount+, and CBS Sports holds those rights through 2030. The biggest addition for sports fans is UFC — Paramount+ became the exclusive U.S. home of all UFC events starting January 2026 under a 7-year, $7.7 billion deal. Every numbered event and every Fight Night is included in a standard Paramount+ subscription with no extra pay-per-view charge. For MMA fans who were paying $80–$90 per UFC PPV on ESPN+, this is a significant financial shift. College football fans should note the limitations: CBS carries Big Ten games and some rivalry games, and those stream on Paramount+ Premium, but Fox-carried Big Noon games, FS1 games, and most other conferences do not appear on Paramount+.

  Is Fox on Peacock or Paramount Plus? Neither — Fox is not on Peacock or Paramount Plus · Peacock carries NBC content (not Fox) · Paramount+ carries CBS content (not Fox) · Fox channels require Fox One, YouTube TV, Fubo, Hulu Live TV, or Sling

  This is a common source of confusion because Peacock (NBC’s streaming service) and Paramount+ (CBS’s streaming service) both carry sports, and people sometimes assume one of them carries Fox content too. They don’t — each of the four major broadcast networks runs its own streaming ecosystem. ABC/ESPN content goes to Disney+/ESPN. CBS content goes to Paramount+. NBC content goes to Peacock. Fox content goes to Fox One. None of them cross-carry the others’ broadcast or cable channels. Where things get complicated is that live TV streaming packages — YouTube TV, Fubo, Hulu Live TV, DirecTV, Sling — carry all four broadcast networks plus most major cable channels in one subscription. If you want Fox Sports, CBS Sports, NBC Sports, and ESPN all in one place, a live TV streaming package is the most practical solution. Just having Peacock and Paramount+ without one of those packages means you’re missing ABC/ESPN and Fox entirely.

  What is the Paramount Plus live sports schedule? NFL Sundays on CBS (Sep–Jan) · UFC events year-round (no PPV) · UEFA Champions League (Sep–May) · March Madness (March) · NWSL matches · Serie A · World Rugby events

  Paramount+ essentially runs on two sports calendars that overlap without much gap. Fall and winter belongs to the NFL and college football on CBS, plus UFC events every few weeks. Spring belongs to the UEFA Champions League knockout rounds, which build toward the final in late May. Year-round there are Serie A matches from Italy’s top soccer league, NWSL women’s professional soccer, and various international soccer events under the CBS Sports rights portfolio including the Concacaf Women’s Champions Cup. UFC, added in 2026, fills in the sports calendar consistently — there are 13 major numbered events and 30 Fight Night events annually, spread across nearly every weekend. The CBS Sports HQ channel available within Paramount+ runs 24/7 sports news, highlights, and studio programming at no extra charge. One channel notably absent: CBS Sports Network, the cable channel that carries college sports and other live events — that requires a cable subscription or a live TV streaming package, not just Paramount+.

  Does Hulu have Fox Sports? Hulu on-demand (base app, $7.99–$17.99/mo): No Fox Sports · Hulu + Live TV ($89.99/mo): Yes — includes local Fox, FS1, FS2, Fox News, and Fox Business as part of the channel bundle

  Hulu divides into two very different products that share a name. The basic Hulu on-demand service ($7.99/month with ads) is a streaming library — movies, TV shows, and a small number of live news channels. It does not include Fox Sports or FS1. Hulu + Live TV is a completely separate product at $89.99/month that includes a full live channel lineup — Fox, FS1, FS2, Fox News, ABC, CBS, NBC, ESPN, and 90+ other channels. Think of it like a cable replacement. If someone tells you “I watch Fox Sports on Hulu,” they almost certainly have Hulu + Live TV, not the base Hulu app. Hulu + Live TV is one of the most comprehensive live TV streaming options available but it is also one of the more expensive, at $89.99/month — roughly $18 more per month than YouTube TV’s base plan and about $33 more than Fubo. Its main advantage is the bundle with Disney+ and ESPN+, which comes included with the subscription.

  What streaming service has Fox Sports for the cheapest price? Fox One standalone: $19.99/month — cheapest direct path to FS1, FS2, and local Fox · Sling Select: $19.99/month — FS1 only in select markets · YouTube TV Sports Plan: $54.99/month new subscribers (first year) for broader coverage

  The cheapest way to get FS1 and the full Fox Sports lineup depends on what else you want alongside it. If Fox channels are your only priority, Fox One at $19.99/month is the most cost-efficient option — it covers FS1, FS2, Fox News, Fox Business, Fox Weather, Big Ten Network, Fox Deportes, and your local Fox broadcast channel. Sling Select also offers FS1 at $19.99/month but local Fox availability depends on your market and coverage is less consistent. For viewers who want Fox Sports alongside other major sports channels (ESPN, NBC, CBS), YouTube TV’s Sports Plan at $54.99/month for new subscribers for the first year is the best overall value — it covers nearly every sports channel worth having. The key thing to check before subscribing to any service: confirm your local Fox affiliate is available in your ZIP code. Some rural and smaller markets have gaps in local channel coverage on streaming services.

Paramount+ simplified its plan structure in January 2026. There are now two tiers. Neither includes Fox Sports, FS1, or any Fox channel — but both include a strong live sports lineup built around CBS.
