The Justice Department is investigating whether the NFL engaged in anticompetitive practices that forced football fans to pay high subscription fees, according to a government official familiar with the matter.

The investigation has to do with making sure consumers have access to the games at an affordable price and having a level playing field for the game providers, officials told USA TODAY.

The Wall Street Journal first reported the study.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
