The National Football League (NFL) has extended its agreement with Nike to continue as an authorised supplier of NFL footwear.

An NFL partner since 1995, the company will continue to supply NFL players with branded footwear for use in games and in training. In addition, the agreement allows Nike to continue to use NFL and NFL team logos to promote its footwear products.

Nearly 80% of NFL athletes play in Nike performance cleated footwear. Among the list of endorsers are ‘Most Valuable Player’ Shaun Alexander, ‘Defensive Player of the Year’, Brian Urlacher and Super Bowl XL MVP, Hines Ward.
