The 30th annual NFLPA Rookie Premiere is in the books. Forty players from this year's star-studded draft class got a whirlwind introduction to the business side of professional football in Los Angeles. The Premiere event serves as a unique opportunity for rookies to interact and connect with some of the industry's most influential brands to build on their budding NIL (name, image and likeness) careers and leverage the power of group player rights through their union.
Thirty NFLPA partners participated this year, including Sleep Number, Lowe's, Panini, FedEx, Fanatics, EA Sports and Gatorade. Their creative activations provided the rookies with significant exposure and content for upcoming marketing campaigns that will allow fans to get to know the player behind the helmet.
