Last week, ESPN welcomed the 2026 ESPN Creator Network to its Bristol campus, bringing together five creators who will help tell the story of a landmark football season as ESPN builds toward its first-ever Super Bowl telecast in February 2027.

Creators Chase Murman, Leah Cammarano, Diana Flores, Isaac Rochell and Simone Scott spent the day getting an inside look at ESPN and connecting with teams across the company. The group toured campus, captured content, met with ESPN talent and participated in individual sessions designed to help shape their storytelling throughout the season.

The creators also heard more about ESPN’s Year of the Super Bowl LXI before stepping inside the NFL Live studio for a firsthand look at one of ESPN’s signature football shows. The visit concluded with a collaborative content session bringing the full class together.

Now in its fourth year, the ESPN Creator Network connects distinctive social storytellers with ESPN’s biggest events and experiences. This season, the five creators will take fans behind the scenes throughout the football calendar — culminating with ESPN’s first Super Bowl LXI in Los Angeles.
