DraftKings Launches Mobile App in Tennessee
Tennessee does not have any casinos in the state, so the licenses for sports betting will be online only. Those licenses have been awarded by the Tennessee Education Lottery.
The price tag on a license is $750,000 a year, and four operators have been approved. BetMGM, FanDuel, and Action 24/7 will join DraftKings in the online sports betting market in Tennessee.
Action 24/7 is going to be an exclusive online betting operator for Tennessee, while the other three are well-known around the US as some of the top operators in the industry.
DraftKings got its start as a daily fantasy platform and has blossomed as a sportsbook across the country. The website and app are both extremely user-friendly, providing a great sports betting experience for customers.
It currently has a generous sign-up offer in the form of a risk-free bet up to $500. In addition to that, DraftKings always has new offers and promotions for current customers for specific games or events in sports.

Week 8 NFL Betting Pick
This is a great time for sports betting in Tennessee, as the Titans are one of the top teams in the NFL. They suffered their first loss of the season last weekend against the Steelers but will look to bounce back in Week 8 against the Bengals.
The spread is sitting in favor of the Titans by 5.5 points. Expect Derrick Henry to have another explosive game and lead the Titans to victory. They will win by at least one touchdown, but more than likely two.
The over/under is set at 53.5, which seems like a lot of points for this matchup. Cincinnati’s Joe Burrow is still a young quarterback, and the Titans will have him making some mistakes in this one. The Bengals won’t score alongside the Titans enough for the game to reach the over.
For the first weekend of sports betting in Tennessee, you can take the Titans -5.5 and the under.
