With access to DAZN’s direct-to-consumer platform – including its powerful data-driven technology, global distribution network, and marketing capabilities – the NFL will be able to grow and engage new audiences over the next decade, building on its growing international fan community.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said: “Growing the NFL globally is a key strategic priority for the League and our 32 Clubs. We are excited to partner with DAZN to help us accelerate this effort.
“Our goal has always been to make our games available to as many fans as possible, and we are confident that DAZN’s innovative viewing experience technology will best serve millions of viewers around the world while also engaging a new generation of international NFL fans.”
DAZN CEO Shay Segev said: “The NFL is the premier sports media property, and DAZN is incredibly excited that they have chosen us as their international partner.
“DAZN is the only company that is single-mindedly focused on delivering the very best digital experience for sports fans worldwide and I am confident that we will deliver a superb experience for NFL fans, while helping the league engage new markets and demographics in the sporting phenomenon that is NFL.
“We can’t wait to bring all the drama, passion and excitement that the NFL is renowned for to our customers as we continue to build the ultimate global destination for sports fans.”
