Darrelle Revis, the famed former Jets and Patriots cornerback, has announced a business partnership with New Jersey’s newest sportsbook, PointsBet.
Revis, 33, will serve PointsBet in many ways, not the least of them as their highly visible ambassador. Right now his bearded, smiling face features strongly on their official website, https://pointsbet.com/.
Among his other duties, Revis will be responsible for creating videos and text features to help punters understand sports betting.
He will do this via the new ‘Darrelle Revis Sports Betting Agency. It will offer a wide range of videos and articles by him. They will include a series of lessons on the right and wrong ways to bet.
This, both for spread, money-line, total, prop and parlay betting as well as PointsBet’s unique specialty, points betting.
His customer assistance program will also feature a parley calculator to help bettors find out the potential payouts based on American odds.
Points betting is an exciting new form of betting
Points betting is a totally new, and in the words of its operator, a most exciting way to bet. Revis, a Super Bowl winner with Patriots, uses video and text to explain exactly how it works
The four-time Super Pro will also host a weekly program during the NFL season called ‘Darrelle’s Corner’. In this, he will dissect and analyze NFL games and offer expert tips.
Revis is ranked as one of the US’s all-time great cornerbacks. His place on the field was nicknamed ‘Revis Island’ because of his outstanding ability to shut down No 1 receivers.
And this, in the view of PointsBet, gives him an ideal CV for his new partnership.
Australian-owned PointsBet became the 9th and most recent sportsbook in New Jersey when it was launched in November 2018.
Revis could help enhance PointsBet’s footprint
As the new kid on the block, PointsBet see Revis as being an excellent attention getter in the region. Being revered in New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia, they believe, can only enhance PointsBet’s footprint.
Since his retirement, he has continued to maintain a high public profile. One of the ways was by launching the Darrelle Revis Foundation to combat childhood hunger.
The Foundation hopes to develop daily exercise programs across urban America like the “Snacks & Sneaks” summer program.
