Sky Sports wins rights to air NFL's 'Sunday Night Football' for next two years

Sky Sports announces that it has won the rights to broadcast the NFL's 'Sunday Night Football' for the next two years.

Sky Sports has announced that a deal has been struck to broadcast the NFL's 'Sunday Night Football' for the next two years.

The network will now show 100 live NFL matches a season, including the Super Bowl, the Pro Bowl, every playoff fixture, and at least five games a week across the regular season.

Sky will also broadcast 'Monday Night Football' coverage, as well as pre-season action between New Orleans Saints and the Houston Texans on August 30.

Sky Sports strategy director Jonathan Licht said: "We're excited to add Sunday Night Football to our extensive NFL coverage this season. Viewers can now enjoy over 100 games a season on Sky Sports, which added to our digital and on demand offering, makes it our most comprehensive line-up of NFL ever. NFL fans in the UK and Ireland are going to be in for a fantastic season."

Sky's coverage will get underway on September 10 when New England Patriots take on Pittsburgh Steelers.
