NBC Sports Network (NBCSN) Launches on Comcast Xfinity TV

As part of an intra-company tie-up, NBCUniversal’s new standalone NBC Sports network is now available on select Comcast Xfinity TV cable packages.

NBCSN is a 24-hour linear network featuring live games and sports content from the NBA and WNBA, English Premier League soccer, college basketball, golf and more – and, starting in 2026, Major League Baseball games, including select postseason games. The revived NBC Sports network first launched on YouTube TV earlier this month.

The sports network is available on Xfinity’s Popular TV package and the platform’s Sports & News TV package. NBCSN offers programming that was previously only available on NBCU’s Peacock streaming service; select events will remain exclusively on Peacock, including a special Week 17 NFL game (Saturday, Dec. 27) and a slice of Olympics coverage.

The new NBC Sports Network includes: Monday night NBA games and NBA playoff games; Premier League football matches; “Gold Zone,” hosted by Scott Hanson (daily coverage of the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics in February 2026); WNBA regular season and playoff games; Big Ten and Notre Dame football; Big Ten, Big East and Big 12 men’s and women’s basketball; golf majors, including selective coverage of the US Open and Open Championship; cycling (including Tour de France, Tour de France Femmes and Vuelta a España); Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks undercard horse racing; and Olympic sports such as figure skating, skiing and snowboarding, gymnastics, swimming and track and field.

NBCSN also offers studio shows, including “PFT Live,” “The Dan Patrick Show,” “The Dan Le Batard Show” and “Fantasy Football Happy Hour” with Matthew Berry.

NBCSN began as a small sports network called the Outdoor Life Network, launched in 1995, before its name was changed to Versus; in 2012, it was renamed NBC Sports Network. NBCU closed the property in late 2021, moving some sports programming to USA and Peacock.
