Pat McAfee, NFL stars shine in new NFL flag football ad for Super Bowl 59
Fox releases IndyCar ad featuring Pato O’Ward ahead of Super Bowl Sunday
Ahead of its on-screen debut during the Super Bowl, Fox released its latest ad from it’s IndyCar promo campaign featuring fan-favorite Pato O’Ward.
Flag football has been a major focus of the NFL as of late. Not only has the Pro Bowl turned to flags in order to improve player safety, but the NFL itself has used the Super Bowl and other big events to advertise the rising sport.
The NFL’s latest ad features a myriad of NFL stars including Marshawn Lynch, Justin Jefferson, and Myles Garrett. It also features a brief appearance from social media superstar and former NFL punter Pat McAfee.
Check it out here the NFL Super Bowl commercial spot on YouTube.
McAfee, NFL stars featured in flag football commercial
The NFL is looking to make girls’ flag football a varsity sport in all 50 states. The ad itself has boys on the fictional high school football team noting that “Girls can’t play football” and then growing increasingly frustrated when realizing that the girls at their school are just as good, if not better than them.
The NFL’s push for girls’ flag football has been an immense success. Per AdWeek, NFL CMO Tom Ellis claimed, “Just this week, two more states have sanctioned girls’ flag football as a varsity sport, and we have had a 100% increase in sanctioning in just the last year, so this year’s spot is on that momentum.”
