Verizon Communications Inc. is exclusively teaming up with the National Football League Inc. to create 5G services for football fans, Bloomberg News reported.

The two-year partnership will see the U.S. carrier tapping developers to develop 5G streams of live NFL games for smartphones, as well as in-stadium video feeds and multiangle camera positions for home viewers.

The deal, the terms of which were not disclosed, came as Verizon is set to launch its 5G mobile service in April at selected areas in Chicago and Minneapolis.

Verizon also has an existing multiyear streaming deal with the NFL that covers the league's in-market and national games.
