Army and Navy Sign 10-Year Multiplatform Rights Extension Deal

CBS Sports has extended its partnership with Army and Navy for America’s Game, the annual Army-Navy football matchup, through 2038. This means that CBS will continue to be the exclusive home for one of the greatest rivalries in sports for over four decades.

David Berson, the President & CEO of CBS Sports, along with Mike Buddie, Director of Athletics at the United States Military Academy, and Chet Gladchuk, Director of Athletics at the United States Naval Academy, announced this exciting 10-year agreement. CBS Sports has been broadcasting the Army-Navy Game every year since 1996, and this extension solidifies their commitment to showcasing the talent of cadet-athletes on the national stage.

The renewed partnership includes exclusive rights to broadcast the game on the CBS Television Network and streaming on Paramount+. It also features extensive shoulder programming on CBS Sports Network, such as live coverage of the MARCH ON and week-long archival programming leading up to the game. Additionally, CBS will have exclusive streaming rights to broadcast Army-Navy globally.

This long-term commitment by CBS to the military community emphasizes the network’s dedication to highlighting the traditions, history, and extraordinary stories of the cadets and midshipmen both on and off the field. The 125th edition of the Army-Navy game will be broadcast on Saturday, December 14, with coverage on CBS and Paramount+ including pregame, halftime, and postgame analysis.

Overall, this extension ensures that fans of America’s Game can continue to enjoy the historic rivalry between Army and Navy for many more years to come.
