After making an attempt out the primary playoff sport completely on a streaming service to large success, the NFL is giving it one other shot in 2025. Amazon Prime Video will broadcast a wild card playoff sport subsequent postseason, per the Wall Street Journal, the one which Peacock paid the rights to broadcast this postseason.
Amazon earned the suitable to broadcast the sport primarily based on a clause within the NFL’s present tv contract, which began this season. The wild card sport on Peacock was successful for the league, as Peacock gained 2.8 million new subscribers and 23 million watched the Kansas City Chiefs‘ victory over the Miami Dolphins.
This previous season, NBC Common paid the NFL $110 million final yr for rights to hold a wild card sport on Peacock — which was a one-year deal. This was a trial for the league in its new tv contract, which had unique video games on streaming within the common season (“Thursday Night time Soccer” on Amazon Prime, worldwide sport on ESPN+ and a Saturday evening sport on Peacock).
As a part of the tv contract for 2024, CBS is scheduled to hold two wild card video games, Fox one wild card sport, NBC one wild card sport on Sunday evening, and ESPN on Monday evening. All 4 broadcast companions will broadcast one divisional playoff sport, whereas Fox will broadcasts Super Bowl LIX.
Video games streamed in the course of the subsequent common season would be the “Thursday Night time Soccer” video games on Amazon Prime, one sport completely on Peacock, and one Worldwide Collection sport completely on ESPN+.
