EA exclusive NFL agreement
 

Does anyone happen to know when the current EA/NFL agreement ends? I did some research but could only find articles as late as 2013 claiming the contract has a "few more years" remaining.

I believe it was extended in 2014 when those "NFL 2k15" rumors were out.

Thanks for the reply. We just don't know how long it was extended, huh?

Ran across an article published in 2015 that said the current deal likely runs through 2017 based on previous extension lengths.

Does it really matter at this point? Even if the agreement expires this year, there's no publicly-available reason for the NFL and EA to not renew their arrangement.

Also the NFL always goes to EA first to renew the contract when it's about to expire anyways.

The last line of the article shouldn't be ignored:

the smart money remains on that relationship continuing well beyond the end of the current deal, regardless of the desire from consumers for competition.

yep. and despite the NFL being a non-profit, its all about the MONAY!
