Following the actor's recent passing, the company adjusted their Super Bowl ad to honor his legacy.

Carl Weathers, renowned for his roles in film and television, passed away on February 1, 2024, at the age of 76 due to cardiovascular disease.
FanDuel honored the late actor in their Super Bowl LVIII commercial, featuring a touching tribute at the end of the ad.
The tribute included a moment where Rob Gronkowski looks back at Weathers, who nods in return, followed by the on-screen message, 'Thank you, Carl.'
