The NFL’s Sunday Ticket could be added to streaming services in 2022 when DirecTV’s contract with the NFL is set to expire.
While DirecTV will likely keep the satellite rights of the deal, the NFL is looking for someone to take on the streaming rights. One big name apparently is Disney, according to Sports Business Daily.
Disney CEO Bob Chapek said the company is “in discussions and negotiations with the NFL.”
Disney, which also owns Hulu has been bulking up its service with sports. The platform already hosts live Soccer matches and has packages that include live NBA games.
