Future plans for the network include scripted and unscripted television shows, animated and other youth-oriented content, short-form and audio programming.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u201CAs professional athletes we have a huge opportunity to offer unbelievable levels of access and authenticity to the fans that support us,\u201D Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman said in the NLFPA press release. \u201CWith the launch of ACE Media, we now have a way to seize that opportunity by creating content no one else can.\u201D\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;ACE Media has already created partnerships with a range of media entities, including BET Networks, Bleacher Report, The Players' Tribune and 120 Sports.
