The NFL (National Football League) is the professional league of American football, and has been going strong for over a decade. Over that time, they’ve hosted thousands upon thousands of games, between their range of 32 teams.

Now it’s never been easier to watch them, with so many just a click away through your smart TV via the NFL Game Pass. But how do you activate your account?
