NFL Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Houston Texans to be on Sky Sports

NFL Hard Knocks to be shown on Sky Sports

For the first time the reality sports documentary NFL Hard Knocks will be available to UK and Ireland viewers on Sky Sports.

Starting this Sunday, NFL Hard Knocks, produced by NFL Films and HBO, is the tenth season of the ground breaking documentary that has been enjoyed across America since 2001.

The documentary for 2015 is based around the Houston Texans, the first AFC South team to have a Hard Knocks featured around them. The series follows the lives of the players, coaches and backroom staff, whilst the team battle for positions, work to stay fit and look towards the season. There is also a look into team revelry and personal downtime focusing on their lives away from the field.
