NFL RedZone has returned for the 2016 regular season. Join host Scott Hanson and check out every touchdown on Sunday, September 11, for free.

The NFL regular season is nearly here and that means it’s also time to check your channel guide to see if you have the NFL RedZone. And fans are in luck for the opening week because NFL RedZone is offering a limited time free trial to kick off the 2016 NFL season. The offer started with NFL preseason games, and will extend to Week 1 of the regular season. RedZone will show fans every touchdown from every Sunday afternoon game on September 11, via NFL.com.

"NFL RedZone from NFL Network NFL REDZONE FROM NFL NETWORK IS GIVING YOU A FREE PRESEASON PREVIEW. IT’S YOUR CHANCE FOR A SNEAK PEEK AT HOW WE TAKE YOU FROM GAME TO GAME – LIVE, EVERY SUNDAY OF THE REGULAR SEASON.

Obviously, the NFL Thursday opener, a Super Bowl 50 rematch between the defending champion Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers from Sports Authority Field at Mile High, won’t be included. Nor will the Monday Night Football doubleheader on ESPN, September 12, featuring the Pittsburgh Steelers at the Washington Redskins and the Los Angeles Rams at the San Francisco 49ers.

NFL RedZone host Scott Hanson took to Twitter this week to engage followers and RedZone subscribers, in anticipation of the 2016 season.
