The National Football League announced a multi-year deal with Verizon Communications on Monday to live stream in-market and national games, including playoff games and the Super Bowl, across Verizon’s digital and mobile media properties to users in the U.S.
The deal is worth more than $2 billion, ESPN, Reuters and the Wall Street Journal reported.
Verizon, which is an official sponsor of the NFL, will officially kick off the partnership in January by streaming the NFL playoffs on Yahoo and Yahoo Sports, which the telecommunications conglomerate acquired in June. That will be in addition to the go90 and NFL mobile app streaming options already available.
