Xbox announced a multi-year, landmark partnership to introduce exclusive, interactive NFL television experiences for Xbox One.

This partnership will redefine NFL experiences through exclusive and interactive content that you will find only on Xbox. For fans, the NFL on Xbox will provide the most complete way to enjoy live football by bringing the first fully-integrated fantasy football experience to the TV, exclusively through Xbox Durango.”
