The NFL is reportedly looking to secure broadcasting rights for its two December 25 games in 2024, with sources suggesting that the league is seeking between $50 million to $100 million for each game. Boomer Esiason of WFAN has speculated that Netflix could be a potential partner for these games, suggesting that the NFL and Netflix could collaborate to broadcast the Christmas Day football games.

While Netflix and the NFL have not previously partnered for games, Netflix has shown that it is capable of streaming live events, such as a recent Tom Brady roast on a Sunday night. A potential partnership between the NFL and Netflix could open up new opportunities for both parties.

However, negotiations for the broadcasting rights may put the NFL in a tricky situation. The schedule for these games may require taking them from networks like CBS and Fox. While the NFL has authority to make these decisions, it may complicate existing relationships with these networks. Despite the challenges, the NFL’s highly valuable product and limited supply give them leverage to make decisions in their favor, potentially leading to significant financial gain as they explore new broadcasting opportunities for Christmas 2024.
