The streaming giant will carry two games this year and at least one game in 2025 and ‘26. Defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City will face Pittsburgh in the first game, followed by Baltimore at Houston.
The NFL has played a total of 30 games on Christmas Day since 1971, including three last year. It has stayed away from midweek games, though, until this year’s Christmas slate.
Hans Schroeder, the executive vice president of NFL Media, said team owners meeting in March were presented with a plan where teams playing on Christmas Day would have their Week 16 games on Saturday, which would give them the same amount of prep time they normally have in a short week when playing on Sunday and Thursday.
After owners gave the go-ahead to proceed, Netflix approached the league about airing the games.
“We had a broad process and talked to a number of potential parties and ultimately thought Netflix was the one,” Schroeder said. “This is really the first truly global rights deal with a major sports league or property. We’re going to learn a lot and excited for our fans around the world to enjoy the games on a single platform.”
