Kansas could launch sports betting sooner than anticipated to capitalise on the upcoming NFL season, with a “go-live” date potentially being announced this week.
The Sunflower State is moving quickly to launch in time for the September kick-off of this year’s pro football season, according to BetKansas.
Failing a pre-season launch, the Midwestern state will look to go live early into the 2022/23 NFL campaign, added BetKansas, which begins on 8 September.
Industry insiders, such as former Michigan State Representative and current Head of Government Affairs at Sportradar Brant Iden, foresee an autumn start for the Sunflower State’s sports betting market.
