The NFL just dropped a new promo, but instead of everyone talking about the Chargers and Chiefs, all eyes went straight to MrBeast and one wild line.<\/p>\n
On Sept. 3, a promotional clip featuring MrBeast, IShowSpeed, Sketch and Dude Perfect went live to hype the Sept. 5 Week 1 matchup streaming exclusively on YouTube. In the middle of the video, MrBeast casually claimed, \u201cI figured, why not just buy the entire NFL?\u201d<\/p>\n
