📺 What is NFL Watch and Bet?
NFL streaming is coming to American sports betting sites through the Watch and Bet feature.
Watch and Bet is a live streaming service combined with sports betting. It means that a US sports betting site can stream NFL games live, and at the same time display odds on screen. Players can then follow the game and the betting lines at the same time, and bet on their favorite game as it happens. The aim of Watch and Bet is to offer in-game betting and player props during live video streams of NFL games.
The Watch and Bet service is provided by Genius Sports in partnership with the NFL and their sportsbook partners. Currently, only Caesars Sportsbook has been included in the deal, but more sportsbooks are sure to follow in the future.

Future NFL Streaming Sportsbooks
The NFL has three official partners: Caesars, FanDuel, and DraftKings. Even though FanDuel and DraftKings have not yet announced that they’ll be having the Watch and Bet feature in the future, it’s safe to say that the official NFL partners will have this option in the future.
DraftKings NFL Streaming
DraftKings started out as a fantasy sports operator, but quickly pivoted into legal NFL betting in 2018. They are now the second biggest sportsbook in America and one of the three NFL sports betting partners. DraftKings Sportsbook already offers live streaming on the betting site, so it’s only a matter of time before they offer NFL live streaming with in-game betting as well.
FanDuel NFL Streaming
FanDuel Sportsbook is the biggest sports betting site in America. Like DraftKings, they started out as a daily fantasy sports operator. FanDuel offers the best NFL odds in the market, but they are not big in live streaming. However, NFL streaming is something that the biggest American sportsbook will 100% have in the future.

❗ Problems and Solutions for Caesars Watch and Bet
There are a few problems you might run to with the Watch and Bet live streaming. We have a quick list of solutions to the most common problems you might encounter:
I Can’t See The Live Games
The watch and bet is only available on the Caesars Mobile app, and in the state you are registered in. So if you’re trying to access from the desktop or out of state, you won’t see the live games.
The Watch and Bet Stream Won’t Start
You must have a positive balance and placed a bet within the last 10 months to enjoy the stream. You can see the events if you haven’t but you can’t watch them.
I Can’t Place A Live Bet
If your trying to bet live and the line changes, you might not be able to place the bet at the odds you’ve selected. In this case, you might need to refresh and bet again.
📅 Watch and Bet NFL Schedule
Featured Games on the Caesars Sportsbook include all Sunday night games (SNF on NBC), and the Christmas Game at 4:30PM EST. The sportsbook will only show one game per every week and playoff games, including Super Bowl betting, are still TBD. Hopefully DraftKings and FanDuel would be on board for the playoffs already, so we can get more football live streaming action.
