The Jacksonville Jaguars are facing the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football, and it’s been an ugly affair early.
Some viewers of Amazon Prime’s “Thursday Night Football” matchup between the Jacksonville Jaguars and New Orleans Saints got a special experience: seeing what was going to happen on a play before it actually happened.
Viewers who watched the game in Prime Vision with Next Gen Stat could see the unveiling of a feature called Defensive Alert that is powered by artificial intelligence to identify potential blitzes before the snap.
The technology was used on one play that showed potential blitzes where running back Alvin Kamara failed to pick it up and it led to quarterback Derek Carr being hit from behind which led to an incompletion and a punt on the next play.
Like the post stated above, it is just a matter of time before teams are going to want to put their hands on this technology.
