Daniel Kaplan of The Athletic is reporting that the NFL prefers that Apple lands the NFL Sunday Ticket package. Kaplan is reporting that the new package could allow fans to buy just one team’s out of market games. Fans would also be allowed to buy single games. The NFL is looking for jut a bit more than $2 billion for NFL Sunday Ticket rights, according to The Athletic.
This is big news, one that a lot of people that buy the full package will welcome. Nothing is finalized as of yet, but in Kaplan’s article a source told him, “Everything is on the table.”
There are roughly 2 million Sunday Ticket subscribers, but it was estimated in Kaplan’s article that only half pay the full fee.
