Super Bowl week has always been more than just the championship game on Sunday. It’s a celebration that brings together football, entertainment, and pop culture, and once again, the NFL and YouTube are fully embracing that spotlight.
The NFL announced that the Super Bowl 60 Flag Football Game is set for Saturday, Feb. 7, airing live at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT on the Official NFL YouTube channel. What started as a creative crossover event is now one of the most anticipated highlights of Super Bowl week, offering fans a unique mix of competition and celebrity fun.
This year’s matchup features global music superstar J Balvin going head-to-head with creator and comedian Druski as team captains. The quarterback showdown adds even more thrill, with former NFL MVP Cam Newton facing off against the always electrifying Michael Vick.
The lineup is brimming with star power from various realms. Music artists like Kane Brown, Benson Boone, Young Miko, and Eladio Carrión will share the field with social media stars such as Deestroying, Jesser, Ross Smith, and Pierson Wodzynski. Flag football talents Diana Flores and Ashlea Klam bring high-level skills, while Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders adds Hall of Fame charisma and leadership.
