After getting called out by xQc for posing as Andrew Tate, Adin Ross might land up in trouble again. Adin Ross and controversy are two words that go hand in hand, as the 22-year-old always lands up in one. For instance, the streamer’s fans trolled him for posing as the controversial kickboxer, Andrew Tate, and following his path. Moreover, the famous streamer xQc was also against Adin emulating Tate as he believed it wasn’t the right choice. 

However, it always felt like Adin paid little attention to his critics and continued to chase his dreams in his own style. And recently, he made a massive announcement – walking out from Twitch and signing a $150 million contract with Kick. This instantly hit the headlines, with fans having multiple questions for him. But once again, Ross continued to do what he did best, pushing himself into a controversy. 

Apparently, the content creator streamed the Super Bowl on Kick, which was not allowed legally. Moreover, the NFL strictly owns the right to stream the event, so a question was raised about whether he was allowed to stream it. And then, it was a matter of minutes before it grabbed the attention of popular journalist Jake Lucky, who invited a lawyer to understand the situation.

On Feb 14, Adin streamed the event after its live telecast. Mainly because the platform did not have any restrictions about streaming such content over it. However, it instantly grabbed the attention of Jake Lucky, who brought in renowned lawyer AttorneyTom. Jake asked Tom about his opinion regarding this issue, and well, the lawyer had a hot take.

Following that, Tom stressed the fact that the NFL could sue him, as well as all the streamers for featuring the event. After all, they owned the rights to its telecast, and so streaming without permission would result in copyright infringement. Plus, Tom claimed the lawsuit could cause “damages in the millions and millions, and millions of dollars.”

The NFL Copyright infringement history 

Back in 2001, the franchise sued two businesses for using their merchandise without a license. According to The Baltimore Sun, the NFL filed a report in the Baltimore District court stating that they were selling the products without permission. 

Similarly, there have been reports where they have sued companies and people over multiple things, such as photographs, telecasts, wrong information, and more. So, there is a chance that the authorities might look up this case. Considering the NFL’s long history of filing lawsuits over its products, only time will tell whether Adin walks out safely from this controversy!
