ARLINGTON, TX – February 16, 2023 – The XFL today announced today that Progressive Insurance® (“Progressive”) (NYSE: PGR) has been selected as The Official Auto Insurance Sponsor of the XFL.
“We’re proud to have Progressive joining our impressive and growing network of partners,” said Russ Brandon, XFL President. “Progressive was an early and important sponsor of the XFL in 2020, and we are glad to have their strong support for our 2023 season and beyond.”
Progressive will have premium, on-field brand positioning located on each side of the 50-yard line at each of the 43 XFL games, gaining national marketing exposure through the XFL’s exclusive broadcast partner, The Walt Disney Company and ESPN.
