From the Masters article re NFL rights split. Guess the AFL will eventually go the Amazon Prime route.
.... the $US100 billion ($129 billion) 11-year deal signed over the weekend between the major US broadcasters and the NFL shows networks can’t exist without leading sports.
The $US100 billion-plus agreement is a doubling of the value of NFL rights; beginning in 2023 and to be shared across the traditional linear broadcasters of CBS, NBC, Fox, ESPN and ABC. It will be broadcast on free-to-air TV, pay TV and streaming platforms.
Amazon Prime is the new broadcast entrant, buying the 18-game NFL Thursday Football Package for the first time on its streaming service. This is Amazon’s largest investment globally in sports media rights, spending about $US1 billion per year. While very significant, it represents only 10.5 per cent of the total value of the NFL media rights..........
NFL regular season has 32 teams x 8 home games = 256 games. I knew everyone got 1 bye for a 17 round season, but don't know if the 2 byes is relatively new, or new for this deal to have 18 Thursday night games.
18/256 = 7.03% vs $1bil/season / $9.1bil/season = 11%. A nice premium for the exclusivity.
