Former NFL Star Terrell Owens Partners with Draftster

October 23, 2014

Former NFL wide receiver Terrell Owens has signed a sponsorship deal with Draftster.com, a leading daily fantasy sports platform.

This endorsement deal further confirms the attraction of professional athletes to this relatively new sector.

“We are very excited and proud to be working with a player the caliber of Terrell Owens. He has an edge that fans relate to and players are going to love having the opportunity to engage and challenge him in our contests,” said David Peterson, Draftster, CEO.

According to the Fantasy Sports Trade Association (FSTA), 32 million Americans spend $467 per-person or about $15 billion in total playing. Of that, roughly $11 billion is spent on football. That is a 13% gain from IPSO Public Affairs’ 2013 study.

“I’m very excited about joining the Draftster family. I spent a lot of time researching DFS platforms and can say they offer the best user experience I’ve seen,” said Terrell Owens. “I am really looking forward to challenging other players and expect to keep my name (terrellowens) in the top of the standings.”

“Athletes are the sole reason professional sports exist. Having them as an integral part of the Draftster experience is both a strategic decision and an issue of quality for us. We have great things planned and we’re stacking our decks for success,” commented Peterson.
