Christopher Magsambol — September 29, 2015 — Tech
The NFL and Snapchat have teamed up to give football enthusiasts a more immersive fan experience than simply watching from home.
The massive sports league and social media hit are collaborating together and will provide updated "snap stories" each day there is an NFL game. The images and videos will likely be from in-stadium points of view and sideline perspectives. The league will offer fans a behind-the-scenes look at its games.
The snap stories will also incorporate fan-created snaps, giving Snapchat users a wide array of footballing content. The NFL-themed snaps will continue throughout the season, and will be extra active for the Super Bowl in February. Game footage from telecasts will not be included however, only offering an alternative and supplementary content to enhance your overall viewing experience.
