Antonio Brown Chooses Xenith

DETROIT, Sept. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Xenith announced today that Antonio Brown, Raiders wide receiver, will be wearing a Xenith Shadow this season.

"NFL athletes have a choice in what helmet they wear. I choose Xenith," said Brown. "It's not easy to make a change like this so far into your career, but the Xenith Shadow was the only helmet that could fit my needs on the field." Watch the video announcement HERE.

The Xenith Shadow, Xenith's flagship helmet, is the most advanced helmet in the game. Designed for the athlete, and rigorously engineered and tested for the field, the Xenith Shadow is an evolution of the company's patented Adaptive Fit technology which decouples the head from the hit. Its streamlined design improves fit and protection while increasing comfort and agility.

Thoughtfully designed to provide balanced weight distribution, the Xenith Shadow feels light and responsive, allowing for quickness and speed on the field, while still ensuring a stable fit.

"At Xenith, our entire business is built around designing for the football athlete – having one of the best athletes in the game choose the Xenith Shadow is an absolute honor," said Ryan Sullivan, Xenith CEO. "From the first conversation we had with Antonio and his business partner Connor Kroll, it has been a collaborative effort – from designing for his on-field performance needs and high standards, to the values we share on and off the field, we look forward to many more collaborations with AB."

Xenith and Antonio Brown look towards the future in creating a partnership that is larger than football. With a shared passion for community building, furthering the athlete's pursuit, and making the game of football accessible for athletes at all levels and from all beginnings, #XenithIsBOOMIN.

Antonio Brown joins Xenith's growing family of football athletes from youth to professional – including NFL ambassadors Buffalo Bills Running Back and 15-year NFL veteran, Frank Gore, and Cleveland Browns Running Back, Nick Chubb.

"The Xenith Shadow is a manifestation of our ongoing commitment to being at the forefront of head-health and performance science, and integrating those insights into meaningful innovation for athletes on the field," said Grant C. Goulet, PhD, Vice President, Product Innovation, Xenith.
