The NFL’s adoption of the sponsorship migth be limited to the practice jersey, but is still a valuable way to get your brand on the players of the most popular North American sports league.
Going into 2026 camps 90.6% of the league has a practice jersey partner, up from 87.5% last year, and several teams switched jersey patch partners or signed multiple partners for different times of the year, so teams are still figuring out which partners and strategies are best suited for this asset.
The league’s size and cultural influence means that these small patches can create big value, and they reach the fans who are truly locked in all year, in season or offseason.
