The defensive duo appear on the final season premiere of the hit FXX show
Arizona Cardinals defensive stars Calais Campbell and Tyrann Mathieu appeared on the seventh, and final, season premiere of the FXX show “The League” last night ahead of the 2015 season. The show, which focuses on a core group of friends, intertwinned with a fantasy football league, and their everyday lives.
The show stars Mark Duplass, Nick Kroll, Stephen Rannazzisi, Paul Scheer, Jon Lajoie, and Katie Aselton and was created by Jeff and Jackie Schaffer.
Calais Campbell tweeted out a picture of him and Mathieu on the set:
