More than eight months after the launch of DirecTV Now, parent company AT&T announced Monday it would begin to roll out CBS Networks on the growing internet-based television service and provide more sports for cord-cutters using it.

CBS had been a glaring omission for DirecTV Now, and it brings to viewers the NFL on CBS — including Super Bowl LIII in 2019 — the NCAA men’s basketball tournament, SEC football, The Masters along with college football on CBS Sports Network and sports content on Showtime. CBS Sports Network is available on the “Go Big” package, and Showtime can be added for $8 a month.
