The National Football League (NFL) and iHeartMedia is revealing more of the NFL Podcast Network's fall programming lineup to bring more of the NFL to fans. This season, the network also brings listeners highlights from its franchise NFL programming via podcasts hosted by some of the league's biggest names.
"The football season is an exciting time for fans across the country and the world, and we're thrilled to continue our exclusive podcast partnership with the NFL, debuting a new lineup of exciting programming that complements, highlights and analyzes all the action on and off the field," said iHeartPodcasts President Will Pearson. "Our listeners can't get enough of the NFL Podcast Network and we're so excited for what's to come over the next few years as our partnership continues to grow together."
The NFL and iHeartMedia have launched a series of new shows aimed at giving listeners more coverage including "NFL Now," where Andrew Siciliano breaks down the latest news from the league's top reporters; "NFL Total Access," a nightly show giving fans access to their favorite NFL teams; and "NFL GameDay View," with hosts Rachel Bonnetta, Cynthia Frelund, Gregg Rosenthal and Patrick Claybon providing analysis and predictions for each week's slate of games. Additionally, "NFL Power Rankings" with Dan Hanzus and Colleen Wolfe gives an in-depth look at weekly rankings of all 32 teams.
"We are excited about the opportunity to expand the NFL's Podcast Network and reach new audiences with the addition of compelling new shows to our strong existing lineup," said NFL Vice President, Head of Business Operations and Club Media Meredith Battin. "Heading into this season, we held an intention to tap into the player community to help grow our podcast offerings as well as utilize the deep NFL Media talent roster, and with this fall lineup and the continued partnership with iHeartMedia, we feel that we have greatly succeeded."
This month, the NFL Podcast Network will launch more new programming with shows from top talents, and later this year NFL greats Emmanuel Sanders and Nate Burleson will also debut their own podcasts on the network.
