The statement added that NFL Media, the league's operated media division, will offer content from NFL Films on Facebook's Watch platform.

The deal is the latest to bring sports content to Internet platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Amazon.

Dan Reed, Facebook's head of global sports partnerships, said the deal "will deliver comprehensive coverage while enabling the active NFL fan communities on Facebook to watch and debate the top storylines from each week."

The NFL earlier this year awarded streaming rights for Thursday night games to Amazon, after a similar deal with Twitter last year. Verizon, meanwhile, won streaming rights for the September 24 NFL game played in London.
