ESPN2 HD sert de deuxième antenne pour la couverture sportive en direct aux États-Unis, diffusant souvent des événements qui complètent ou se déroulent en même temps que la programmation de la chaîne principale ESPN. Sa programmation inclut généralement le football et le basketball universitaires, la Ligue majeure de baseball, le hockey de la LNH et les tournois de tennis, ainsi que des sports motorisés et des matchs de football de diverses ligues. La chaîne diffuse également des émissions en studio, des actualités sportives et des séries documentaires originales consacrées à des athlètes, des équipes ou des moments historiques précis. Contrairement à la chaîne principale, ESPN2 a historiquement proposé un éventail un peu plus large de sports de niche ou émergents, comme la crosse, le rugby ou le bowling professionnel, en complément de son offre grand public. Le flux haute définition offre une image plus nette pour les actions rapides, ce qui est standard pour la plupart des diffusions sportives en direct dans le pays.

Les téléspectateurs peuvent accéder à ESPN2 HD via la plupart des fournisseurs de télévision par câble, satellite et fibre optique à l'échelle nationale. La chaîne est également disponible sur plusieurs plateformes de télévision
