RedZone blackout looms as NFL Network fight with Xfinity hits Week 1 deadline
Disney and Comcast’s carriage standoff has already run three months—now RedZone’s future on Xfinity is on the line for 20 million subscribers.
The NFL Network remains blacked out on Comcast Xfinity as a carriage dispute with Disney drags into its third month, and the clock is ticking toward a Week 1 showdown. The standoff began in mid-April when Disney and Comcast failed to agree on new carriage terms. NFL Network, which includes the RedZone channel, vanished from Xfinity lineups the same week, leaving 20 million subscribers without access.
