3 Minute ReadWho Was the DraftKings King of the End Zone?
Super Bowl LX delivered a signature moment when Uchenna Nwosu broke free for a spectacular pick 6 touchdown that instantly crowned them the DraftKings King of the End Zone.
It was the kind of explosive play that shifts momentum - and thousands of DraftKings users who put money on the Defense and Special Teams will agree, as they now share the $4 million King of the End Zone prize pool thanks to their winning pick.
This year’s edition of the promotion was one of the most popular ever, giving fans a chance to turn a single touchdown into a massive community payout. Below, we break down exactly how the promo worked, why it generated so much excitement, and how you can keep the fun going with DraftKings’ weekly NBA version: King of the Court.
How the King of the End Zone Promo Worked
DraftKings kept the format simple - but the stakes couldn’t have been bigger.
Users who opted in received a single‑use Qualifying Bet Token that could be placed on any prematch Super Bowl LX touchdown prop, including:
- First Touchdown Scorer
- Anytime Touchdown Scorer
- 2+ Touchdowns
After placing a minimum $5 single bet with the token, users were officially entered into the King of the End Zone sweepstakes.
How the $4,000,000 Prize Was Awarded
The entire promo revolved around the longest touchdown scored in Super Bowl LX. Here’s how DraftKings determined the winners:
- Only the player who scored the touchdown counts — passing TDs do not make the quarterback eligible.
- Rushing, receiving, and return touchdowns all count, including kickoff, punt, and fumble returns.
- Defense/Special Teams bets can also win:
- If multiple players tied for the longest TD, all users who selected any of those players split the $4 million.
- One token per customer, expiring at kickoff.
This was the final chance of the NFL season to participate in King of the End Zone - and once again, it delivered a thrilling finish.
