The XFL Will Be Cord Cutting Friendly As It Teams Up With ABC, ESPN, & FOX Sports

The imaginary stadium is modelled and rendered.The XFL wants to do something many have failed to do by taking on the NFL. Most recently the AAF tried just this year at a spring football league but failed as funding fell through.  Now the XFL has announced that they have signed a multi-year deal with ABC, ESPN, and Fox Sports. This means most XFL games will air for free on ABC and FOX. With other games showing up on FS1 and ESPN both now easily available to cord cutters.

“We look forward to showcasing the XFL on ESPN and ABC, including the kickoff game and championship during the league’s inaugural season,” said Burke Magnus, ESPN Executive Vice President, Programming and Scheduling. “Vince McMahon and Oliver Luck are two of the sports industry’s most creative and experienced leaders, and they have exciting plans for this league. We believe in their vision for the XFL, which will be a great addition to our year-round commitment to football.”

“We welcome the XFL to the FOX Sports Family and are pleased to expand our relationship with Vince McMahon,” said Eric Shanks, FOX Sports CEO & Executive Producer. “Football is in FOX Sports’ DNA and a key component of our programming strategy. Alongside Oliver Luck and his incredible team, we’re excited for the debut of the XFL on FOX Sports.”

“We are thrilled to partner with ESPN and FOX Sports, two innovative media companies with extensive experience in world-class football production that will undoubtedly help us reimagine football,” said Vince McMahon, XFL Founder & Chairman. “The XFL broadcast schedule provides us with incredible reach and makes it easy for fans to watch our games consistently every weekend.”
