No. Sky still hold the rights for what they currently broadcast throughout the season. 3x Sunday games (first choice in the earlier time slots, and as shown in America for the late game), a Monday game (again chosen by the NFL partner in the US), playoffs, Super Bowl, etc.
Essentially this is the rights to every other game throughout the season.
What isn’t clear is whether the DAZN package will duplicate the Sky games on a non-exclusive basis or whether they are blacked out in the UK.
Interesting to note though: minor rights in a ten year contract. Worryingly for UK consumers facing a price rise is there’s a suggestion this will be an add on!
