Stay Up to Date on Football Season with these ESPN Apps

For some, football season is more exciting than the holiday season. Further indulge in your love of football with these top-rated ESPN apps. That way, you’ll be sure to catch every second of football season — and play out your football fantasies, too.

The ESPN App
This app is one of the most popular sports apps in the Play store for a reason. It’s free to download and has a lot to offer for all major sports. Receive live news updates, current scores, alerts, and video highlights of NFL and college football games. You can also listen to live national and regional games — a great option if you have to work late on a Monday night or take a long weekend road trip.

In addition, when you get the ESPN app on your Android TV, you can use WatchESPN to stream many live games, including Monday Night Football and college football games. However, in order to watch all football games during the season, you will need to purchase a cable or internet package through certain specific service providers.

The ESPN Fantasy Sports App
Why not participate in a fantasy league this football season? This app is also free to download from the Play store. As the name suggests, the app includes a variety of fantasy sports in addition to football such as baseball, hockey, and basketball. You can create your own fantasy football league to play with friends or work colleagues, or join an existing league. Draft, add, and trade players on your team, and consult app-provided player rankings and projections when making your moves. You can even compare your fantasy team to your favorite real-life teams and receive notifications on the latest scores and news.

Protect Your Device
Unfortunately, fraudulent and malicious apps are more common than you might think. These apps tend to mimic popular apps available in the Play store in name and appearance, but once you download them they infect your device with malware or steal your personal information. A malicious app can be downloaded thousands of times before Google is able to remove it. Protect your device by downloading PSafe Total to ensure that your Android is protected against security threats and malware 24/7.
