Having already dipped its toe into the sports-ing waters by offering up LIV Golf and the docuseries100 Days to Indy, The CW is now tackling pro football.

The CW Network is now the exclusive home of the Emmy-winning studio seriesInside the NFL, which first premiered in 1977 and in recent years has aired/streamed on Showtime and Paramount+.

Season 47 ofInside the NFL will kick off Tuesday, Sept. 5 at 8/7c on The CW, and also stream on The CW App and CWTV.com.  Hosts and producers for what is being described as a "revamped" 2023 edition will be announced at a later date.

The CW's fall schedule as pertains to Tuesday nights (previously announced as a two-hour block of acquired sitcoms) will thus change; details TBA.

Inside the NFL, which airs weekly from Week 1 of the NFL season through the Super Bowl, promises an "authoritative look-and-listen-in to every week's greatest moments and unforgettable stories," showcasing previously unseen angles of pivotal game action as captured by NFL Films cinematographers.
