Esports Entertainment Group (EEG) has joined the Philadelphia Eagles for a series of bi-annual tournaments for EA’s popular NFL Madden video game.

Esports Entertainment Group is entering a multi-year partnership with the Philadelphia Eagles, an NFL franchise. As a result, EEG is the first organization to officially team up with a football team to specifically provide the franchise with a dedicated esports tournament.
EEG will host a bi-annual Madden NFL esports tournament, with the Eagles tapping into the Esports Gaming League platform, a dedicated solution that powers competitive video gaming across multiple games, including EA’s NFL Madden series.
As part of the partnership, the Eagles will join EEG as a shareholder. Commenting on the partnership, Catherine Carlson, SVP of Revenue and Strategy for the Philadelphia Eagles, said that the partnership was an “innovative and wonderful opportunity” for the sports outfit to expand into new markets and bring new experiences for the team’s fans.
Carlson commended EEG on its leadership position in esports entertainment and expressed confidence that its ability to bring fans together will transcend physical and digital borders for a unified experience for all, adding:

EEG CEO Grant Johnson has praised the partnership, arguing that the entire organization was thrilled to welcome the Eagles into the esports family. EEG is now looking forward to expand its reach with dedicated fan bases and drive growth for the franchise.
“Our tournament segment is a key component of our Three Pillar growth strategy,” pitched in EEG EVP Esports Magnus Leppäniemi. The tie-up with the Eagles would demonstrate EEG’s platform ability to deliver and adjust to new formats and bring value across numerous markets, Leppäniemi added.
