DAZN reaches an agreement to acquire EverPass Media, a distributor of licensed sports content for commercial venues such as bars, restaurants, hotels, and casinos. The deal gives DAZN control of EverPass’s commercial distribution business, which includes live sports rights carried through partnerships and channels used in the U.S.
Sources describe EverPass as holding the commercial distribution of NFL Sunday Ticket, a key element of the acquisition. Bloomberg and other outlets frame the move as part of DAZN’s broader U.S. expansion, while Variety and Yahoo emphasize that DAZN is specifically targeting the commercial segment of sports media. Hollywood Reporter and Deadline add that EverPass’s related investors—tied to the NFL and major partners—will become minority shareholders in DAZN after the transaction. Financial terms are not disclosed in the reports.
