Netflix Strikes Three-Year Deal to Broadcast NFL Games on Christmas Day
Henry Goldblatt, writing for Tudum, Netflix’s splendidly named in-house blog:
Netflix has an early Christmas gift for you — but it won’t fit
under the tree. On Dec. 25, 2024, we’ll be the global home of the
NFL’s two Christmas Day marquee games: the Super Bowl
LVII-winning Chiefs vs Steelers and Ravens vs. Texans. And mark
your calendar for Christmas Day in 2025 and 2026 when we’ll be
streaming at least one holiday game each year as part of this
three-season deal.
My two questions:
First, who’s going to announce the games?
Second, how strong a bid did Apple make to get these games?
