Is NFL Launching Its Own Streaming Service?

The National Football League (NFL) will likely launch its streaming service, NFL+, as early as July, the Sports Business Journal reports.
The platform will reportedly cost around $5 per month.
It will feature live games on mobile phones and tablets and other possible content, including radio, podcasts, and various other team-created content, the TechCrunch reports.
NFL+ looks to function independently as a part of NFL Media, which will give the NFL new data on its users.
However, NFL could fold the streaming product into a larger streaming package.
Previously, NFL distributed games to laptops and tablets for free via Yahoo Sports and various cell phone carriers. However, those deals have expired.
Amazon.com Inc AMZN and Apple Inc AAPL are likely players for the NFL Media stake and Sunday Ticket, which has been with DirecTV for many years.
NFL reportedly had been looking for a partner that could distribute NFL Media or NFL Films content.
Price Action: AMZN shares traded higher by 3.06% at $2,145.79 on the last check Wednesday.
