The Cowboys and Buccaneers kick off the 2021 NFL season and 'Sports Illustrated' is kicking things off with the opening of the SI Sportsbook.
It’s a great time of year to be a sports fan.
We just had a phenomenal first week of college football action, the NFL’s 2021 season starts this week and the MLB playoffs are just a few weeks away.
Another major start that all sports fans should be excited about is the official launch of the Sports Illustrated Sportsbook. We partnered with an industry leader in the betting space to create a sportsbook with users in mind first, last and always.
SI Sportsbook will first launch in Colorado, with more states to follow in the coming months.
“We are excited about the potential to deliver our cutting-edge, proprietary sportsbook platform into the market, providing fans with a first-class betting and gaming experience,” 888 CEO Itai Pazner said.
“Sports Illustrated is the most trusted brand name in sports, and trust in the gaming space is paramount,” said Ross Levinsohn, CEO of Maven, the operator of Sports Illustrated’s print and digital assets. “The editorial, content and betting experience will reflect the integrity and ethos that SI has maintained for more than six decades.”
