Viewers can easily access the NFL App and NFL's FAST Channel in the Zone. Within the NFL app, fans can subscribe to NFL+, which includes access to live out-of-market preseason games, live audio from every game, a 24/7 stream of NFL Network, or NFL+ Premium to access NFL RedZone. Also, this year, NFL+ can be purchased using Instant Signup and Roku Pay, making it easier for users to subscribe to NFL+.

"For the millions of football fans gearing up for the gridiron season, the NFL Zone offers a one-stop-shop experience that can guide them to NFL games, content and more," said Joe Franzetta, Head of Sports at Roku. "We look forward to continuing our partnership with the NFL, and we're proud to present this uniquely designed destination to our streamers for the second year in a row."

"Last year, millions of fans clicked into the NFL Zone to find ways to watch their favorite matchups, must-see highlights, and clips of the 2023-24 season, and now they can do it again," said Grace Senko, Vice President of Media Strategy and Business Development at the NFL. "We hope to continue to innovate with Roku to grow the NFL presence on the Roku platform."

New for the 2024 season, fans can now enjoy team-vs.-team highlights for every game and watch exciting off-season moments. The multi-year renewal of the NFL Zone continues the partnership between the NFL and Roku and builds on the many ways the two companies bring engaging NFL content front and center for NFL fans. Viewers can find the NFL Zone directly from Sports in the Roku Home Screen Menu.

The NFL Zone is also an attractive opportunity for advertisers. Roku has secured premium positions within the NFL Zone for the 2024 season with Total Wireless, a no-contract wireless provider covered by the Verizon 5G network, among others.
