Ready for kickoff? NFL-themed lottery tickets are hitting stores

We are getting ready to start another NFL season. Football fans have another way to get into the game this season. Lotteries across the country are rolling out NFL-themed lottery tickets for the 2026 season. While players can win traditional cash prizes, some of the biggest attractions are found through second-chance promotions. This is where non-winning tickets can be turned into season tickets, VIP experiences, and other prizes that would make any football fan jealous. We are sharing some of these NFL lottery games that have arrived for the new season.

Plenty of ways to win with the Washington Commanders

The District of Columbia Lottery and Washington Commanders have joined forces for the second consecutive season, and things are getting much bigger during the second year.

During the 2025 season, the District of Columbia Lottery featured one Commanders scratch-off ticket. For 2026, players will be able to choose between three scratchers priced at $2, $5, and $10.

They are also offering a new Commanders End Zone Rush e-Instant game that is available online and through the DC Lottery app.

In addition, the DC Lottery is offering a chance for players to enter a second-chance drawing. Prizes for these drawings include game tickets for the Commanders, parking passes, team merchandise, nd VIP experiences. The grand prize includes premium club-level season tickets for 2027, parking, merchandise, and $1,500 in cash.

Some of these prize packages are valued at almost $9,000.

A Super Bowl-sized experience for Seahawks fans

The Seattle Seahawks won the Super Bowl last season, so the hype is real in Seattle. Now, fans have another reason to celebrate.

The Washington Lottery has launched a $5 Seahawks 2026 scratch-off ticket. The new game offers instant prizes of up to $50,000. If your ticket isn't a winner, you can also score some impressive second-chance prizes.

There will be four winners in each of the first two drawings who will receive a 12s Suite Experience. This package includes suite tickets, pregame field passes, a meet-and-greet with a Seahawks legend, hotel accommodations, merchandise, $500 cash, and more.

There will then be one final drawing, which will award a pair of 2027 Seahawks season tickets.

Something new for Packers fans in 2026

Wisconsin Lottery players have several ways to show their Green Bay Packers pride. For the 2026 season, there are three limited-edition scratch-off tickets available: the $1 Go Packers, $5 Green & Gold Crossword, and $10 Packers game.

For the first time, the Wisconsin Lottery is also bringing a $2 Packers Fast Play ticket. All four of these games offer cash prizes, while the Fast Play games also give players a shot at winning a share of the progressive jackpot.

The Wisconsin Lottery is also offering a second-chance drawing. Any non-winning tickets can be entered into a bonus drawing, which features 196 prizes. The grand prize for this bonus drawing is four club-seat season tickets for the Packers' 2027-28 season.

Season tickets for 20 years?

That is what is on the table for Baltimore Ravens fans in Maryland, as they are offering one of the biggest football prizes available.

The Maryland Lottery has launched $2 Ravens X2 and $10 Ravens X10 scratch-offs. These games offer top prizes of $20,000 and $200,000, respectively.

They are also offering second-chance drawings for non-winning tickets. These prizes for these drawings include game tickets, cash, a trip with the team to an away game, and on-field experiences.

The grand prize of them all is that one lucky winner will receive a pair of club-level Baltimore Ravens season tickets for 20 years. This prize would start with the 2027 season.

More NFL tickets give fans a chance to score big

Those aren't the only NFL-themed tickets players across the country can find this season. There are several other state lotteries getting into the football spirit with games featuring their hometown teams. These games include:

• Michigan Lottery – Players can buy the $5 Detroit Lions instant game. The top prize for this game is $500,000, with overall odds of winning any prize of 1 in 3.95.
• Texas Lottery – Two teams, so two tickets to choose from. Both Dallas Cowboys fans and Houston Texans fans have a $5 ticket available, which offers a top prize of $100,000 with non-winning tickets having a chance to win second-chance drawings for prizes like Cowboys season tickets, VIP training camp experiences, and Draft Day War Room experiences.
• Kansas Lottery – Chiefs fans out there? This $10 Kansas City Chiefs scratch-off ticket features a top prize of $75,000.

One winner and a guest will receive a VIP experience at the Denver Broncos' final regular-season home game of 2026. Ten other winners will receive a pair of Broncos season tickets for 2027.

With the NFL season kicking off soon, lottery players don't necessarily have to choose between football and their favorite scratchers. This season, the two are increasingly becoming part of the same game.
