This Sunday, when the San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks face off in a divisional meeting, the game will have a slightly more personal element on the line for both teams’ young quarterbacks.

In a video advertising Madden 25, quarterbacks Colin Kaepernick and Russell Wilson, of the 49ers and Seahawks respectively, decided to raise the stakes. The losing quarterback of the actual game played this Sunday will have to shave off an eyebrow.

Kaepernick and Wilson, two of the most promising quarterbacks on two of the best teams in the NFL, play in Seattle at 5:30PST this Sunday. The winner will be in a good position in the NFC West, while the loser will have a quarterback with an asymmetrical face.
