Is there any package containing NFL football club data?

Question

I came across the R baseball package, which contains basically the entire historical scale of professional baseball data that can be used to analyze fantasy. Does anyone know if there is something similar for NFL football data?

I know some previous answers that mention sites like www.pro-football-reference.com that provide data for each player, but I'm looking for something in a summary data format.

Answer 1

A quick google for NFL football csv data will lead to a number of interesting links, like this one or this one . This link also looks promising.

Answer 2

NFLdata.com has a complete historical database and weekly updates throughout the season. There may be some other decent sites that sell data, but based on my experience, these guys are the best.

Good luck.

Answer 3

see http://www.fantasydata.com

They have a calm api for the NFL. MLB NBA and NHL. Has real-time statistics during games. Not free, although this is a paid service.

Answer 4

Now there is: https://github.com/maksimhorowitz/nflscrapR It resets NFL data from the NFL website. It contains data for each player since 2009.
