NFL+ does not offer out-of-market games to fans outside of the national prime-time contests. Verizon decided to end its streaming partnership last year as part of its strategy to exit the video content business by spinning off Yahoo and AOL.
The company gave up its exclusive rights in 2017 and presented NFL content across its digital properties including Yahoo. Verizon was the first company to offer NFL games on mobile devices, starting in 2010. “It’s the right time now for us to package this all together in a product that is more significant at a price that we think is attractive,” said David Jurenka, senior vice president of NFL Media and general manager of the NFL’s Los Angeles office.
