Quick Hit acquires NFL License

A story on ESPN says that Quick Hit Football, the free-to-play online tackle football game, has acquired a license from the NFL to use the league's teams, logos, schedules, Super Bowl, and stadiums, though players and coaches would be covered by a different license. You may recall that EA has an exclusive NFL license through 2012, and Quick Hit's CEO seems just as confused about how that works as the rest of us. "That's a better question for EA," says Quick Hit CEO Jeff Anderson. "I don't have a copy of the contract they have with the NFL, but for us, it's a tremendous opportunity. Adding the NFL really transforms this product from a really cool Flash game to an incredibly authentic online football game. We're going to be the first mover in the space. The only place you're going to be able to play an NFL licensed game on your PC this fall is 'Quick Hit.'"
