An exclusive series charting the fortunes of the Arizona Cardinals is to air exclusively on Amazon Video this year, a statement said on Monday in the latest sign of the Internet giant’s increasing diversification.
A statement from NFL Films said the new unscripted series — All or Nothing — would be available on Amazon Video in a few months.
A spokesman for NFL Films later confirmed to reporters that the series would not be made available on any other platform.
“All Amazon customers [both Amazon Prime and non-Prime] will have access to the show, free-of-charge,” the spokesman said.
“That is the only place it will live,” he added.
NFL Films is the filmmaking arm of the NFL responsible for making dozens of acclaimed shows in the past, racking up 121 Sports Emmy Awards in the process.
For All or Nothing, filmmakers were granted exclusive behind-the-scenes access to the Cardinals during last year’s season, which ended with a crushing defeat in the NFC championship game to the Carolina Panthers.
“This show is going to give customers a front-row seat to some of the most exciting, never-before-seen, football action,” Amazon digital video vice president Michael Paull said in a statement.
It marks the first time Amazon has invested in sports on TV, regarded as a key to the sector.
Amazon is also reportedly bidding for the rights to stream live NFL games on Thursday nights on its platform, along with Apple and Google.

Aaron Civale got a little wild in the right-hander’s first start for the Chicago White Sox two days after he was traded by the Milwaukee Brewers. Civale on Sunday walked four of the first seven hitters he faced in a 2-1 loss to the Texas Rangers. The 30-year-old finished with four walks, one off his career high, while allowing six hits and two runs in five innings. He threw 65 strikes and 39 balls. Chicago trailed 2-1 when he was replaced by Dan Altavilla to start the sixth. “Not the cleanest,” Civale said. “It’s been a whirlwind of a week. First couple
Sergio Ramos on Tuesday outfoxed two Inter players and artfully headed home the first goal for Monterrey at the FIFA Club World Cup. The 39-year-old Ramos slipped through the penalty area for the score just as he did for so many years in the shirts of Real Madrid and Spain’s national team, with whom he combined smarts, timing and physicality. Ramos’ clever goal and his overall defensive play at the Rose Bowl were major factors in Monterrey’s impressive 1-1 draw against the UEFA Champions League finalists in the clubs’ first match of the tournament. “There is always a joy to contribute to the
DOMINANT JUVENTUS: Randal Kolo Muani and Francisco Conceicao both scored braces as Juventus made a statement in their opener with a big win over Al-Ain Phil Foden on Wednesday scored two minutes into the match and later had an assist to lead Premier League powerhouse Manchester City past Moroccan club Wydad AC 2-0 at the FIFA Club World Cup. City broke Wydad’s five-man defensive line early when Foden scored on a deflected cross by goalkeeper El Mehdi Benabid. Jeremy Doku doubled City’s lead in the 42nd minute off a corner-kick from Foden. Shortly afterward, an animal-rights advocate ran onto the field to protest Morocco’s treatment of stray dogs and cats. The man was tackled by security workers and escorted out of Lincoln Financial Field, which was just over
