On Wednesday, Commissioner Roger Goodell told reporters that, when it comes to the league’s sagging TV ratings, “I don’t think there’s a single reason for it.”
“There are a lot of factors to be considered,” Goodell added. “We don’t make excuses. We look at it and we try to figure out what’s changing.”
He later said that the league hasn’t “lost viewers.” Instead, the problem as Goodell sees it is that they’re not watching as much or for as long.
As to the anthem protests turning off viewers, Goodell said, "[W]e don’t think that’s a factor and our network partners don’t either.”
