The NFL is gearing up to drop its 2025 schedule next week, and while fans are buzzing, there's a major shake-up brewing behind the scenes for where some of the biggest games will land. According to a new report, the league is planning to split four former Monday Night Football doubleheaders between YouTube and Netflix—a move that signals just how quickly streaming is reshaping the game day experience.

These four games were originally part of ESPN's Monday Night Football lineup but were returned to the NFL earlier this year as part of the network's deal to acquire NFL Network. Now, with no broadcast home, the league is turning to the streaming giants to fill the gap. CNBC's Alex Sherman reports that YouTube and Netflix will each get a slice of the action, adding to the growing trend of premium NFL content moving off traditional TV.

This isn't coming out of nowhere. YouTube has been rumored to be in line for a five-game package, while Netflix—currently in the second year of a three-year deal that includes two Christmas Day games—is reportedly keen to expand its NFL footprint beyond the holiday slate. If the deal goes through, Netflix could be looking at a longer-term commitment, with renewal talks already heating up.

Here's where it gets interesting: the NFL says it actually wants to increase its broadcast footprint this season. Last year, about 87% of games aired on traditional broadcast networks, and the league expects that number to tick up slightly in 2025. But if YouTube and Netflix are each taking on four to five games, that math starts to get tricky. Add in the two Christmas Day games already locked into Netflix, and you're looking at potentially nine games shifting from linear TV to streaming. That means the NFL will have to carve out at least three more games from its existing broadcast partners to fill those packages.

We already know at least one game is heading to a streaming platform, and with the schedule release just days away, expect more clarity on how these moves will affect your viewing—and your wardrobe. Whether you're tuning in on cable, YouTube, or Netflix, one thing's for sure: the way we watch football is evolving, and the NFL is all in.
