NFL RedZone’s live broadcast was disrupted by a 10-minute audio hiss during Week 14, worsening fan frustration over increased ads.
NFL RedZone faced a major audio failure during Week 14 kickoff, with a loud hissing noise disrupting live commentary for nearly 10 minutes and causing partial audio delays.
The technical glitch, which occurred less than 10 minutes into the broadcast, coincided with growing fan frustration over a significant increase in ads—up from one to over four minutes per hour—under ESPN’s expanded NFL partnership.
Viewers took to social media to criticize both the technical issues and ad-heavy format, with many mocking the static as resembling old TV noise or frying bacon.
Host Scott Hanson did not acknowledge the broadcast problems live, and the incident has intensified concerns about RedZone’s reliability and its once-prized commercial-free appeal.
