What Nine-Figure Acquisition Means for Pro Football Focus, Analytics Future
Teamworks will integrate PFF’s proprietary football analytics and data with its AI-driven platform, serving all NFL teams and over 240 Division I college programs, CEO said.
- On Monday, March 30, 2026, Teamworks announced the acquisition of Pro Football Focus 's enterprise business, integrating the analytics platform with its Durham-based operating system valued at more than $1 billion.
