American Football League (AFL) on NBC is a television program that broadcast professional football games of the then fledgling (when compared to the more established National Football League) American Football League (AFL) on NBC.

Beginning in 1965, NBC signed an agreement to carry the AFL's telecasts, which carried over with the American Football Conference (AFC) when the AFL merged with the NFL.
