For those with YouTubeTV, they are in standoff with NBC/Comcast. Also, Apple TV may get NFL's Sunday Ticket when current deal with DirecTV runs out.
NBC/Comcast deal ends Thursday. Google said it would lower the monthly cost of YouTube TV from $64.99 to $54.99 while NBCUniversal's content is unavailable on the platform. NBCU's Peacock had 54 million subscribers as of June 30, though only around 3 million are believed to be paying for a $4.99 per-month ad-free subscription. The service lost $363 million in the second quarter, with $122 million in revenue.
AT&T-owned DirecTV has offered "Sunday Ticket" since 1994, and currently pays $1.5 billion per season for it. AT&T is reportedly uninterested in renewing when its deal expires after next season. The league may sell its "Sunday Ticket" package to Apple, creating a partnership with the leading phone maker and world's largest company by market cap. Amazon was reportedly in the lead for the out-of-market games package, for which the NFL is seeking $2 billion to $2.5 billion per season. Disney is interested as well.
Curious as to how many people buy the full Sunday Ticket package. We've done it a couple times, but just prefer NFL Red Zone instead.
