The Los Angeles Rams and CBS 2 have announced a multi-year partnership agreement that officially designates the station as the preseason television home of the club.
The announcement was made by Kevin Demoff, Rams Chief Operating Officer and Steve Mauldin, President and General Manager, CBS 2 and sister station KCAL 9.
CBS 2 will provide telecasts of all Rams preseason games, excluding those broadcast by the NFL’s national television partners.
CBS 2 will air live coverage of three Rams preseason games:
• Saturday, Aug. 20, at home against Kansas City
• Saturday, Aug. 27, at Denver
• Thursday, Sept. 1 at Minnesota.
In addition, CBS 2 will produce and broadcast a weekly half-hour show with Rams Coach Jeff Fisher and CBS 2 sports director Jim Hill.
CBS 2 viewers will receive the latest Rams news during the station’s nightly “Sports Central” reports.
“We look forward to helping the team connect with local communities across Southern California,” said Mr. Mauldin. Besides preseason game broadcasts, he said there will be “comprehensive daily coverage of the Rams in our newscasts and we will be supporting the team’s community outreach programs.”
