I wonder if that included the rights to produce new content.

It did not.
NBC already owns the production rights to the Office. Under agreements with the various Hollywood talent guilds, they are required to pay market value for distribution rights such as exclusive online streaming, because that money gets paid to profit participants like producers, actors, writers, etc.
However, NBC is considering rebooting or spinning off the Office with some of the original cast.
