NEW YORK: As football fans get ready for the start of the National Football League season on Sept. 5, they may think the league will finally endorse a legal U.S. sports betting operator."We haven't opened up the category" in the United States, Christopher Halpin, the NFL's Chief Strategy & Growth Officer, told Reuters on Tuesday.

Halpin said the league may experiment with sportsbook partnerships in a couple international markets before making any moves to do the same in the United States. The league does not want to"alienate a lot of fans needlessly" by rushing into sports wagering too quickly, he said. The partnerships, in which a league and sportsbook operator usually agree to share trademarks and logos as well as betting data to monitor integrity, have followed a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in May 2018.
