X launched a dedicated football feed called NFL Gametime, designed for NFL fans and featuring a GameTime hub with real-time scores. The feed lives alongside X’s For You and Following timelines and is already available, with plans to remain active through the 2027 Super Bowl. It brings together game and player data, league news and creator commentary in a single stream.
NFL Gametime includes official scores, stats and team content alongside conversation from creators and fans. The static GameTime hub provides real-time score updates, while the broader feed is intended to centralize game-day information and discussion. Brent Lawton, the NFL’s vice president of media strategy and business development, said the feature gives fans official scores, stats, team content and conversation in one place.
For fans, the feed simplifies game-day engagement by combining live information with social discussion. The launch also builds on X and the NFL’s long-running partnership, including a multiyear agreement renewed in 2024.
