05/14/20 • 29 min

This week on my chat heads states side with a look at the NFL with the help of NFL UK’s Senior Manager for Social Media & Content Strategy, Jamie King.

One of the bright spots for sport over recent weeks has been their Virtual Draft, an event that saw some 55m viewers tune and it was all put together in around two weeks. A huge technical and logistical effort.

We also covered the not so bright news that this year’s London Games will not be happening, not a surprise to anyone. So what does this mean for Jamie’s planning for the upcoming season and how they engage with UK fans.

OK, so here’s my interview with Jamie recorded on Tuesday 12th May 2020.
