DALLAS, July 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- DIRECTV, the
satellite TV service owned by AT&T*, will field a first team,
All-Pro lineup this season to promote its exclusive NFL SUNDAY
TICKET package.
Dallas Cowboys' quarterback Dak Prescott, Pittsburgh Steelers'
wide receiver Antonio Brown and
Atlanta Falcons' linebacker Vic
Beasley will appear in an upcoming ad campaign for the NFL
SUNDAY TICKET package. They'll be alongside one of Hollywood's biggest football fans - to be
announced soon.
The ads will highlight NFL SUNDAY TICKET as the only way to
watch every out-of-market game every Sunday, no matter where you
live.1 The spots will debut in the coming
weeks.
The new NFL SUNDAY TICKET spokesmen are some of the most
talented and engaging players in the NFL.
All 3 were Pro Bowl selections last season. Prescott was the
NFL's Offensive Rookie of the Year. Brown, one of the NFL's elite
receivers, is looking for an NFL record fifth 100-catch season. And
Beasley led the NFL in sacks with 15.5 last season.
"Dak, Antonio and Vic are all game-changers," said Brad Bentley, executive vice president and chief
marketing officer, AT&T Entertainment Group. "They are beloved
players. We're excited to have them be part of the NFL SUNDAY
TICKET campaign."
"Playing for the Cowboys was truly an honor this past season.
But taking part in the NFL SUNDAY TICKET commercials I grew up
watching has been surreal," Prescott said. "I'm pumped to become a
member of the DIRECTV family."
"I'm extremely proud that my on-the-field accomplishments have
blessed me with the opportunity to work with great companies like
DIRECTV. It's been a goal of mine since I was drafted into the
league to make it into an NFL SUNDAY TICKET commercial. I couldn't
be more excited," Brown said.
"Working alongside Antonio and Dak during this commercial shoot
has been a humbling experience. I've been a fan of DIRECTV and the
NFL SUNDAY TICKET product for a long time," Beasley said.
NFL SUNDAY TICKET is the ultimate tool for any NFL fan and still
the only place to watch every minute of every out-of-market game,
every Sunday1 .
