With the UFL week three games, viewership remains steady.
After their week three games, it is apparent that UFL viewership has reached a decent average, which is good news for league owners, advertisers, and sponsors who may have feared ratings would drop as the season went on. So far, this is not the case.
For the Sunday afternoon games aired on ABC, viewership remained very strong, topping the million mark for the St. Louis at San Antonio game, which aired at 3 p.m. Eastern.
