Warner Bros Discovery's TNT network has signed a five-year deal with ESPN to broadcast select College Football Playoff games, starting from the upcoming college football season. TNT will present two-round games for two years and include two quarter-final games through the 2028 season. This deal comes amidst TNT's potential loss of NBA media rights, with hopes to retain the association to boost its streaming business and cable customer base. Additionally, Comcast's NBCUniversal plans to pay around $2.5 billion annually to broadcast NBA games, and Venu Sports, a sports-streaming service by Walt Disney, Warner Bros Discovery, and Fox Corp, is set to launch in the fall to attract a younger audience.
