Samantha Gordon has had a busy year since her highlight video hit the web last November, and it doesn't look like her rise to stardom is about to end anytime soon. Not only was she offerred a trip to the Super Bowl, but the 9-year-old running back is also the freshest face of the NFL Evolution campaign.
The latest "Forever Football" commercial from the National Football League highlights the evolution of the game with a clip of Sam tearing through coverages from the same viral video that made her an internet sensation. The tagline "Forever Trailblazers" fades over Gordon as she trucks up the field blazing through defenders.
Not surprisingly, many on Twitter were delighted to see Sam being recognized again for dominating her all-boys football league.
