BetMGM scores former NFL star Johnson as brand ambassador
| By Robert Fletcher
BetMGM has announced the signing of former National Football League (NFL) player Chris Johnson as its latest brand ambassador.
The agreement will see Johnson feature in marketing campaigns, promotions, social media content and fan events.
Johnson, a running back who played for the Tennessee Titans and Arizona Cardinals, spent 10 seasons in the NFL. BetMGM said the partnership would focus primarily on those states.
During the 2009 campaign, Johnson rushed for 2,006 yards for the Titans, making him one of only eight players to eclipse 2,000 rushing yards in a single season, and earning him the nickname ‘CJ2K’.
