The NWSL is eyeing Sunday nights as it discusses a fifth media rights deal with potential partners that would begin next year, according to a report by the Sports Business Journal.
The league currently has deals with CBS, ESPN, Prime Video and ION through the 2027 season that provide coverage of about 62 percent of the games. According to the report, all four partners have sold out their advertising inventory for the 2025 season.
The remainder of the NWSL games are available on a league-owned direct-to-consumer service.
Expansion franchises Boston and Denver will further increase the amount of NWSL games available.
According to the report, the NWSL sees Sunday nights as an opportunity to build on the league’s Friday night matches on Prime Video and Saturday nights on ION.
