Roots Sports has renewed its deal for live out-of-market rights to Sounders games throughout the Pacific Northwest. Univision Seattle have been awarded Spanish-language rights in Western Washington.

Kiro Radio retains English language radio rights, while El Rey 1360 AM will continue as the Spanish-language radio broadcaster.
