Fox said the audience estimate includes the broadcasts on Fox and Fox Deportes as well as streaming on Fox and the NFL's digital sites.
There will be new features for YouTube TV members, like multiview, unlimited DVR storage, personalized recommendations, the ability to view key plays, NFL Fantasy data, real time stats and hide spoilers.
Key plays and multiview will also be available for users who subscribe to NFL Sunday Ticket through Primetime Channels. They will see games "featured prominently in their feeds, so they can quickly jump into the action on game days."
YouTube also says it plans on adding shopping integrations so viewers can easily buy merchandise to support their teams. Social features that YouTube users are already familiar with, like chat and polls, will also be available.
The NFL Sunday Ticket consists of all out-of-market Sunday regular-season NFL games (based on viewer's location) broadcast on FOX and CBS.
Fans can expect to see sign-up options over the next few days.
