NFL defends streaming distribution strategy against criticism

NFL Executive Vice President Hans Schroeder defended the league's policy of allocating an increasing number of games to streaming platforms, stating the NFL has no intention of reversing course. The statement comes as the Department of Justice reviews the NFL's broadcast distribution decisions for potential anticompetitive practices under the Sports Broadcasting Act, and follows criticism from President Trump regarding streaming access.
