The National Football League has launched its own streaming service, betting that the growing number of cable TV cord-cutters will pay to watch certain games on mobile devices.
NFL+, which debuts Monday, costs $4.99 a month or $39.99 a year. In addition to live games, it features shows from the NFL Network and archives of NFL Films. A premium version of the service, which includes commercial-free replays of games, costs $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year.
The NFL remains by far the most popular programming in all of television. After viewership declined two years ago, its regular season audience rose 10% last year to an average 17.1 million per game, its highest mark since 2015.
