New NFL television contract is sweeping, huge changes in store with DirecTV out
Quote:
DirecTV is out under new NFL television contract
While it’s not in the official release, reports surfaced on Thursday that the ESPN+ streaming service will get “Sunday Ticket” for the duration of the 11-year contract, starting in 2023.
For those who are looking to cord-cut, this is no small thing. DirecTV has proven to be expensive for consumers who feel the need to have “Sunday Ticket” in order to see their out-of-market teams play on a weekly basis. DirecTV has held the rights to “Sunday Ticket” since its inception all the way back in 1994. This is indeed a game-changer.

Does anyone have more concrete info on where Sunday Ticket is going? From what I've seen, it won't be on DirecTV. This is the only article that seems to be definitively stating it is going to ESPN+.
