Ever wonder who stole Tom Brady’s irreplaceable Super Bowl jersey, and how he got it back? What Bruce Lee’s protégé taught the Dallas Cowboys that led to a Super Bowl victory? How the first ever female broadcaster broke through the NFL’s glass ceiling in 1974?
The League is a 10-part docu-series about the most bizarre, inspirational, and unlikely stories connected to America’s favorite sport. Go beyond the game and dive deep into the vaults of professional football’s incredibly colorful history.
Thursday Night Football commentators, Super Bowl champion and legendary smack talker Richard Sherman and sports broadcaster and rising star Taylor Rooks co-host. From Joy Road Entertainment, The League promises unrivaled and untold stories that offer equal parts history, entertainment, and social commentary, spanning all the way from the '40s to the present.
The NFL Draft has become the league’s third biggest attraction, right behind the Super Bowl and opening week. Given the spectacle and draw of the event, it’s hard to believe that the draft was an afterthought for league officials for almost 50 years. That changed in early 1980, when a small cable company, just months old and with no budget, decided to broadcast the event from their offices in Bristol, Connecticut.
