It’s finally here! Netflix has officially released the most anticipated trailers dedicated to the most dynamic position in the NFL— Wide Receivers. It’s a sequel to the popular “Quarterback” documentary series, produced by Peyton Manning‘s Omaha Productions.

This new docuseries “Receivers focuses on the elite pass-catchers, who are a big part of a team’s offseason—but the first season of this docuseries emphasized the NFL’s signal-caller. The reason for this shift in focus of the players came out of necessity, as Netflix couldn’t convince the other signal-callers to be featured in the second season and so, they had to move to another position.

Regardless, as the focus pivoted to the receivers, many interesting storylines surfaced to follow through. Earlier this year in March, Netflix officially announced the second season of the “Quarterback” series which focuses on the creative team behind the signal-callers– “Receivers.”
