CBS Sports Debuts Voice-Enabled Fantasy Football Google Assistant

Google, should I draft Ben Roethlisberger?

A new feature being debuted by CBS for this upcoming football season will offer fantasy players solicited advice about who to draft, start, add, or trade. The advice comes through Google Assistant and is based on CBS and SportsLine sports rankings and projections data.

The feature, which officially launched this week, offers users voice-enabled fantasy football advice, such as drafting strategy and, once the season starts, week-to-week lineup guidance. Users simply need to ask the Google Assistant—available through the Google Home smart speaker or Android phones and mobile devices—for help.
