NFL owners approved a plan Tuesday that allows for in-stadium sportsbooks to remain open while games are played in those venues.<\/p>\n

The decision is the latest in a long line signaling the league’s rapid transition from an anti-gaming stance to a broad embrace<\/a> of the sports wagering industry. Currently, only the Washington Commanders<\/a> have a sportsbook inside their home stadium, while the Arizona Cardinals, New York Giants, and New York Jets have wagering locations outside.<\/p>\n

Citing unidentified sources familiar with the matter, The Athletic <\/em>broke the news on Tuesday. A breakdown of how the 32 owners voted on the subject wasn\u2019t revealed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s believed that under the plan to allow in-stadium sportsbooks to remain open on game day, teams will be able to retain all of the revenue generated up to $20 million. Anything above that level will be subject to the league\u2019s revenue-sharing policies.<\/p>\n

Roughly Half of NFL Teams Could Take Advantage<\/h2>\n

Sports betting is now live and legal in 33 states and Washington, DC. Of that group, 15 states and the nation\u2019s capital city are homes to NFL franchises.<\/p>\n

\n

Eight teams, or a quarter of the league, are located in California, Texas<\/a>, or Florida, meaning there\u2019s little chance the seven relevant stadiums (the Los Angeles teams share a venue) will be homes to sportsbooks anytime soon. It remains to be seen how states such as Washington State and Wisconsin, which allow sports wagering only on tribal casino grounds, deal with the issue of sportsbooks in NFL parks, or if the subject is addressed at all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Under the NFL\u2019s new resolution, in-stadium sportsbooks are approved for venues located in states in which sports wagering is now legal.<\/p>\n

How the issue is handled in tribal gaming-dominated states remains to be seen. The NFL has seven<\/a> official sportsbook partners, including BetMGM, Caesars Entertainment, DraftKings, FanDuel, FOX Bet, PointsBet, and WynnBET. Fanatics recently won approval to operate a retail sportsbook at the Commanders\u2019 FedEx Field in Landover, Md.<\/p>\n

Revenue Share Likely Essential in Vote<\/h2>\n

Because sports wagering isn\u2019t yet legal in a broad swath of the states in which there are NFL teams, the revenue-sharing element of the sportsbook vote may have been integral to its passage.<\/p>\n

Because bets will theoretically be placed not just on the home team — and because there is an equity concern that teams in states that continue to ban sports gambling will be at a disadvantage — revenue from sportsbooks beyond a certain threshold of revenue will be shared, unlike most forms of non-national revenues (Sponsorships, etc.) that teams have,\u201d<\/strong> reports CBS Sports<\/em>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The league hasn\u2019t released details on the process for teams requesting bids for contracts for operating in-stadium retail sportsbooks. That\u2019s likely to be highly competitive in major sports wagering markets, including in Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania, among others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
