Thursday, Sept. 2 will mark the end of preseason NFL games as well as a broadcasting milestone. The New England Patriots vs. the New York Giants will be broadcast in 3D from New Meadowlands Stadium in New Jersey.

Specific coverage areas include New York City, Long Island, Westchester and Rockland counties, northern New Jersey, Mercer County, N.J., Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
“This is the next major step in our development of 3D experiences for our FiOS TV customers,” said Terry Denson, VP content strategy and acquisition for Verizon.
The NFL 3D broadcast will start at 6:45 p.m. ET. The game will also be broadcast in HD on NBC in the New York Metro area or on CBS in the Boston/Providence area.
