Company Summary

OverDog connects fans with their favorite athletes via any video game title (Madden, FIFA, Call of Duty, etc). You’re a 49ers fan seeking revenge against a Raven in Madden? You want to play FIFA against MLS guys right from their locker room? OverDog provides that connection. Whatever your game, whatever your sport – with agreements in place with the NFLPA and many others, OverDog is your access point for athlete gamers.
