  • Netflix has called an audible and now plans to pursue a Sunday NFL package following its successful Christmas Day debut last season. Bela Bajaria, the chief content officer for the streaming giant, confirmed the strategy shift on a recent episode of "The Town" podcast.

The article from MSN discusses Netflix's interest in acquiring the NFL's Sunday Ticket package, which has been a topic of speculation in the entertainment and sports broadcasting industry. Previously, the NFL Sunday Ticket was exclusively available through DirecTV, but with the evolving landscape of streaming services, Netflix is reportedly considering bidding for the rights to stream NFL games on Sundays. This move would align with Netflix's strategy to expand its live sports content, following its venture into sports documentaries and its recent deal to stream NFL games on Christmas Day. The potential acquisition would not only diversify Netflix's content offerings but also tap into the lucrative market of live sports broadcasting, which has proven to be a significant draw for viewers and advertisers alike. However, as of the article's publication, no official confirmation or deal has been announced, leaving the possibility open for other streaming giants like Amazon or Disney to also enter the fray.
