Pat McAfee's Media Brand Expands To DAZN, Westwood One

Former NFLer Pat McAfee, who last week signed a deal with ESPN, is "finalizing a multiyear deal with DAZN and Westwood One Radio for a daily two-hour show set to begin Sept. 9." Westwood One will "launch 'The Pat McAfee Show' in 40 markets initially, while McAfee will also broadcast his show live from DAZN’s marquis boxing and MMA cards and contribute to the streamer's nightly baseball show 'ChangeUp.'" Additionally, DAZN will begin "video-streaming McAfee’s podcast, which will expand to three times each week." McAfee also will "create football-focused segments for DAZN Canada and Germany, where the streamer has NFL rights." CAA's Michael Klein and David Koonin "hammered out the ESPN and Westwood One and DAZN deals" (HOLLYWOODREPORTER.com, 8/7).
