Google Now should finally be showing updates about your favorite NFL team

When Google first launched Google Now they didn’t add support for NFL teams. This was largely due in part to the fact that the NFL season hadn’t even kicked off yet. Well, a few weeks ago they were supposed to have NFL support ready for NFL pre-season and that seemed to be wonky for most people as their favorite sports teams simply weren’t being added to Google Now.

It looks like all of that is fixed, though, as users have reportedly started to see Google Now alerts following the first week of action in the NFL. This couldn’t come soon enough for yours truly — I’m a big Packer fan, and I might need to miss a portion of the game against the Bears this Thursday. Having up-to-the-second score alerts will be a big deal for many.

If you can’t get Google Now to learn your team do a few searches about them and see if it doesn’t pick it up in no time. Don’t forget to play the all new Football Beast, the weekly pick-em game where you can win up to $7000 worth of prizes. And be sure to keep up with your team’s schedule using the Football Schedule app in the Google Play Store. [via Droid-Life]
