NFL, NBA support federal betting regulations, wary of other restrictions
Briefly

The SAFE Bet Act introduces advertising restrictions and prohibits in-game wagers, raising concerns among the NFL and NBA regarding the potential impact on their leagues and integrity.
In recent weeks, sportsbooks spent $22.9 million on ads during NFL games, but the proposed ban on advertising could significantly impact these investments and future strategies.
The elimination of live betting has emerged as a contentious point in discussions surrounding the SAFE Bet Act, given the growing popularity of such wagers.
While leagues appreciate legislative efforts to protect their integrity, they express concerns about unintended consequences stemming from the provisions outlined in the SAFE Bet Act.
