Poster for Netflix’s ‘Receiver’
Netflix is expanding its sports content with the new series Receiver featuring four outstanding wide receivers and one tight end. The series continues the streaming service’s partnership with the NFL and is expected to premiere this summer.

Netflix is moving from quarterbacks to wide receivers and tight ends in its latest NFL docuseries.
The streamer has ordered Receiver from the team behind Quarterback – NFL Films, Peyton Manning’s Omaha Productions and Patrick Mahomes’ 2Pm Productions.
The series follows stars such as Las Vegas Raider Davante Adams, Minnesota Viking Justin Jefferson, San Francisco 49ers George Kittle and Deebo Samuel and Detroit Lion Amon-ra St. Brown.
It comes after Netflix last year launched Quarterback starring Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes, Kirk Cousins, then of the Vikings, and Marcus Mariota, then of the Atlanta Falcons. Manning said Netflix had renewed Quarterback for a second season, but admitted that finding subjects was also tricky, hence the pivot to receivers.
The series follows this group throughout the 2023 season, which saw the 49ers beaten in the Super Bowl by the Chiefs.
