The Adidas NFL Porsche Promo Offers Fast Rookies a Free Ride
Michael Hines — February 9, 2015 — Autos
Three lucky football players will receive the Adidas NFL Porsche at this year's combine. The only catch is that they have to be wearing the Uncaged Adizero 5-Star 40 cleats when they run their 40-yard dash. A chance to win a free car simply by running sounds awesome, but NFL players take their choice of gear quite seriously. Sponsors pay players top dollars to promote equipment, so it's likely that only athletes sponsored by Adidas will be eligible to win.
The Porsche 911 Carrera looks to be stock, save for the giant cheetah graphics on it; the interior is fortunately saved from the cheetah treatment. Offering young athletes a chance to win a fast car is a great way to get them to represent your brand. If tons of players end up vying for the Adidas NFL Porsche don't be shocked if more companies offer cars and other goodies to rookies at next year's NFL Combine.
