Initially, the NFL teaming up with Epic Games might seem crazy. Fortnite has basically nothing in common with football, apart from being a competitive game. As we move farther and farther into the modern era, though, it seems as if kids are more interested in video game✃s than professional sports. Marrying those pastimes together might be a good way to generate interest in the NFL from a new audience.
Even if this is an obvious marketing ploy, the exposure given to these streamers will be immeasurable. Just 10 years ago, streaming for a living was a pipedream. Now, it's become a realistic goal for many to achieve. Someone like Ninja or Dr. Disrespect is more recognizable to🥂 today's youth than many Holl𝄹ywood actors (or NFL players).
Maybe in a few years, Fortnite will be streaming on the same day as the Super Bowl. It's 🎃a very real possibility with how ridiculously popular the sho🌠oter has become.
