The Green Room presented by WynnBET to open at MetLife Stadium this season.

WynnBET, the mobile sports betting app from Wynn Resorts, has entered a partnership with the NFL’s New York Jets, naming the operator as an official sports betting partner of the team.

The multi-year agreement includes the operator being the name sponsor of the WynnBET Green Room at MetLife Stadium for Jets gamedays, as well as a presenting partnership with the Jets Podcast Network and the Jets SportsNet NY Pre and Post Game Live shows.

The two parties said the centerpiece of the relationship will be the WynnBET Green Room, a ticketed, 21-years-old and over, all-inclusive food and beverage hospitality space at Jets home games.

The team and operator said in a statement the luxury club space, which is being built out to approximately 4,800 square feet, will provide an “immersive sportsbook experience,” allowing ticketed Jets fans access to live WynnBET betting content such as point spreads, game totals, in-play wagering and more.

WynnBET also becomes the presenting partner of the team's flagship podcast network, including “The Official Jets Podcast” and “Jets Game Preview” pods.

The Official Jets Podcast, hosted by team reporter Eric Allen and former Jets player Leger Douzable, will discuss all the news and notes around the team. In the new series, Jets Game Preview, team reporter Ethan Greenberg and NFL insider Cynthia Frelund will go deep into analyzing the upcoming Jets game.

The Jets podcast network is distributed across NYJets.com, the Official Jets App, YouTube, iHeartMedia, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts and SoundCloud.

In addition, the Jets Pre and Post Game Live TV shows on SNY, featuring NFL insiders and Jets Legends, will be presented by WynnBET and air immediately before and after each Jets game. 

“WynnBET is one of the most innovative and forward-thinking operators in the LSB marketplace,” Jeff Fernandez, Jets vice president of business development and ventures, said in a statement.

“The Wynn name represents a premium brand and overall high touch experience that fits perfectly into the aura of the Green Room. We also expect Jets fans to enjoy the compelling new content on the Jets Podcast Network and benefit from the WynnBET relationship on gameday and throughout the entire football season.”

Wynn Interactive is the online gaming division of Wynn Resorts, Ltd., offering casino and sports betting mobile options via the WynnBET, WynnSLOTS and BetBull brands.

WynnBET currently is available in Arizona, Colorado, Indiana, Michigan, New Jersey, Tennessee and Virginia.
