NFL’s Hall of Fame Game brings in big ratings
After months without the NFL on our television screens, fans tuned in to last week’s Hall of Fame Game between the New York Jets and Cleveland Browns at a high rate.
This year’s first preseason game drew a 3.3 rating, per Sports Media Watch. It also saw an audience of 5.98 million viewers. That’s a 6% increase in rating and a 9% rise in viewership from last year’s game.
The Hall of Fame always serves as the opening preseason game for the NFL. It’s not too shocking that it draws large numbers after fans go without football for months.
Although he didn’t play, there was probably added interest in the Hall of Fame Game because of Aaron Rodgers. The former Green Bay Packers quarterback joined the Jets in the offseason, creating a palpable buzz surrounding the franchise.
The Browns defeated the Jets 21-16 in the first preseason game of the NFL season.
Preseason action really picks up this week, with 16 games scheduled between Thursday, Aug. 10 and Sunday, Aug. 13. The Browns play the Commanders on Friday, Aug. 11 while the Jets take on the Panthers on Saturday, Aug. 12.
