The league has partnered with NBC Sports, EA Sports and Genius Sports to bring viewers a new type of broadcast that blends "video game elements and live action, the stream will be an immersive, data-powered live football experience that injects Madden NFL's unique brand elements as animated overlays."
Live from GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, the AFC South and AFC West leaders will take the field in a matchup that should excite NFL and Madden fans. Highly-rated Madden players expected to take the field include Madden 99 Club members (99 overall ratings) Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce of the Chiefs against tackle Laremy Tunsil (95 rating) and RB Joe Mixon (93 rating), the highest-rated Texans.
The NBC Sports presentation will feature commentator Paul Burmeister handling play-by-play duties, with former NFL quarterback, YouTuber, and Madden NFL expert Kurt Benkert serving as an analyst who will discuss and predict play options. The duo will be joined in the booth by six-time Cincinnati Bengals Pro Bowl wide receiver Chad Ochocinco who will serve as a real-time player "ratings adjuster."
This is one experience fans won't want to miss and you can watch all of the action live.
