NFL Race to the End Zone LIVE powered by Verizon is an action-packed livestream tournament featuring multiple Fortnite game modes, including a custom Super Bowl LX Verizon-branded map. The 24-player invitational will feature some of today’s most influential gaming creators and NFL players going head-to-head in a showdown that fuses creator culture with NFL fandom. With a combined social reach of over 100 million, 19 creators bring their fandom that expands the reach into new audiences.

The winner will take home a custom medallion and chain designed by premier sports championship ring designer Jason of Beverly Hills and the title of NFL Race to the End Zone Season One Champion.
“NFL Race to the End Zone LIVE powered by Verizon is the culmination of an exciting inaugural season that bridges NFL and gaming culture through a mix of elite NFL players and influential creators,” said Ed Kiang, vice president of video games at the NFL. “Through this partnership, the NFL can broaden its engagement with Gen Z and Gen Alpha fans by showcasing the passion and personality of NFL players beyond the field.”
“What NFL Race to the End Zone has proven is that gaming isn’t an experimental channel anymore; it is a fully scaled, premium media environment. And when you pair elite creators with NFL stars, you generate attention that no traditional advertising campaign can match,” said Indy Khabra, co-founder of Livewire. “This tournament brings one of the most influential rosters ever assembled to compete live during Super Bowl week. Partnering with the NFL on this project has been a game-changer and a clear signal of the league’s long-term commitment to gaming as a core entertainment vertical. From stadiums to streams, this is where the next generation of fans lives.”
