NFL ‘Sunday Ticket’ Added to Youtube in $2 Billion Annual Deal

The National Football League announced Thursday its “Sunday Ticket” subscription package would go to Google’s YouTube TV starting next season, marking the league’s second media rights deal with a streaming service.

YouTube will pay roughly $2 billion a year for the residential rights of the “Sunday Ticket” package, according to people familiar with the matter. The deal runs for seven years.

The agreement will elevate YouTube’s profile in the competitive streaming space. At the start of the 2023-24 season, “Sunday Ticket” will be available two ways: as an add-on package on YouTube TV and as a stand-alone a la carte option on YouTube Primetime Channels, which allows you to subscribe to individual streaming services and channels as well as watch movies.
