The NFL is responsible for a huge portion of TV channel ratings, and the league's viewership increased last season for the first time since 2015.
Like the rest of television programming, the NFL has seen its ratings decline in recent years due in part to viewers increasingly ditching cable for streaming services. All four major rights holders saw ratings decline in 2016 and 2017.
The league's ratings, however, grew by an average of 5% last year, according to MoffettNathanson. Viewership among people 18 to 24 shrunk by less than 5% and viewership increased among older viewers. 's ESPN is set to expire after the 2021 season. Its contracts with the other networks are up a year later.'s NBC. Ratings for the NFL preseason were an "awfully bad start" for the broadcast networks, according a note from Bernstein. One game between Miami and Jacksonville drew 49% fewer viewers than a similar game last year. Still, the analysts cautioned that preseason ratings are not necessarily predictive of regular season interest.
