SAN FRANCISCO – No football team can achieve success if the players do not have their teammates on and even off the field.
Just like football fans can’t have football without wings during the Super Bowl, and you can’t have wings without Bounty, football teams can’t have wins without chemistry, and you can’t have chemistry without your partner.
Numerous teammate duos once again joined the Bounty Buddy Campaign during Super Bowl week to promote their backfield mates and discuss what makes each so conducive to the other’s success.

“We were in the same class, so we were drafted to Detroit the same year. We’ve been a big part of what Detroit is building and the culture. From there, we’ve gotten closer on the field. He does his thing, I do mine, and that makes it fun,” Detroit Lions offensive lineman Penei Sewell said of Amon-Ra St. Brown.
“Without him, Jared [Goff] I can’t throw the ball. Without Jared throwing the ball, I can’t catch it. So he’s my teammate,” the receiver added about Sewell.
Los Angeles Chargers receiver Ladd McConkey found a new partner this season in Keenan Allen, as the veteran returned to Los Angeles after a brief stint in Chicago.
“It meant a lot to have him come back. Someone’s going to win, and to be able to get knowledge from him, the leadership he brought to the receivers room was special,” he said.

Reed Blankenship and Cooper DeJean, members of the Philadelphia Eagles secondary, have a similar relationship.
“It’s just natural,” DeJean said. “He took me under his wing when I entered the NFL, taught me all the good and bad things.
“I was going to let him make his mistakes, but he didn’t make many. He’s grown a lot and it’s been fun to play with him,” Blankenship added.
New York Giants rookies Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo became instant fan favorites, and it’s easy to see why.
“It starts with our competitive nature, the way we do our jobs every day and compete, our habits and discipline on the field. At the same time, we go out there with a lot of passion,” Dart said.
