RADIO ONLINE | Wednesday, November 22, 2017 |
Entercom and the Philadelphia Eagles ink a seven-year agreement to extend its 25-year partnership with WIP-FM (SportsRadio 94.1) beginning with the 2018 NFL season. WIP will continue to broadcast all Eagles preseason, regular season and postseason games as well as pregame and postgame shows every game day. The deal now also includes rights to stream the Entercom broadcast and advertising on the Eagles mobile application within the team's home market in Philadelphia.
"As a company founded and based in Philadelphia, Entercom is thrilled to continue our broadcast partnership with our hometown Eagles and SportsRadio 94WIP," said Entercom's President/CEO David Field. "It's a privilege to extend our agreement with such a world class organization as the Eagles, and we look forward to continuing to bring our listeners exclusive, unparalleled coverage of the team both on and off the field."
"SportsRadio 94WIP has been home to the Philadelphia Eagles for more than two decades, so we are thrilled to have this opportunity to extend that relationship and take it to 30-plus years of partnership," said Philadelphia Eagles President Don Smolenski. "We share an incredible history with 94WIP, which includes the flagship radio broadcast featuring the iconic team of Merrill Reese, Mike Quick and Howard Eskin."
Entercom is now the flagship home of more than 40 pro teams across the four major sports and numerous college athletic programs. By remaining on 94.1, the Eagles join a portfolio of 12 NFL teams that also broadcast on Entercom stations.
