SLING TV UNVEILS "STREAM TEAM" LINEUP: 10 COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYERS SIGNED TO $4.99 NIL DEALS

Sling's new $4.99 Day Pass fuels a first-of-its-kind NIL movement proving streaming value beats streaming hype

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Sept. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sling TV, the most flexible live streaming service, today revealed the first-ever roster of the Sling "Stream Team," a group of 10 college football players signed to one-day Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals for just $4.99, matching the price of Sling's new Day Pass subscription.

Last month, Sling TV launched its newest Sling Orange subscription offerings to redefine streaming: Day, Week and Weekend Passes last month. In this next chapter of the campaign, the provider is flipping the script on the traditional NIL narrative. Instead of million-dollar contracts and sneaker endorsements, Sling is celebrating players and fans alike with a never-before-seen one-day, $4.99 NIL deal and a very real reward: a free year of Sling TV.

"This program proves you don't need to spend big to show up big," said Seth Van Sickel, Senior Vice President, Sling TV. "We built our new passes to give fans flexibility, and the Stream Team celebrates the same idea. You can still be part of the action without signing your life (or your wallet) away."

Meet the 2025 "Stream Team" Players

The roster of college football athletes includes breakout transfers, crowd-igniting players and standout walk-ons from powerhouse programs across the country. They were chosen not just for their skills on the field, but for their personalities, campus presence and their ability to represent the voice of real fans.

Fans Can Join "Stream Team" Too

Alongside these athletes, Sling TV is inviting the public to be part of the fun with its "Stream Team" sweepstakes. Through September 26, fans nationwide can enter for a chance to score their own $4.99 NIL deal, one full year of Sling Orange, and bragging rights as an official 2025 "Stream Team" member.

"College football's superfans are its beating heart," said Van Sickel. "We're excited to showcase their passion, unique personalities and unwavering loyalty. We're proud to officially welcome them into the Sling family."
