Exciting news for NFL fans! DirecTV, the long-time distributor of NFL Sunday Ticket, has struck a deal to continue delivering the package to bars, restaurants, and other commercial businesses. This multi-year agreement with EverPass Media means that fans can enjoy a full menu of simultaneous games, rather than just the two or three regionally targeted ones offered on Sunday afternoons by CBS and Fox. And with DirecTV reaching over 300,000 establishments across the U.S., this is great news for football lovers everywhere.
While YouTube recently took over the rights to Sunday Ticket, DirecTV’s new deal means that bars and restaurants can still offer this must-have live sports content to their customers. And with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell hinting that this is just the beginning of a deepening relationship between the league and the digital video giant, we can expect even more exciting developments in the future.
“We’re thrilled to partner with EverPass and continue carriage of NFL Sunday Ticket,” said Mike Wittrock, DirecTV Chief Sales and Service Officer. And EverPass CEO Alex Kaplan added, “EverPass is creating a platform for commercial businesses that allows for seamless access to must-have live sports and entertainment content.”
So get ready for an action-packed NFL season, and don’t miss a single game with NFL Sunday Ticket on DirecTV.
