WAYNE, N.J., March 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Castrol^® announced today that it has extended its multi-year sponsorship agreement with the National Football League (NFL) and renewed its status as the league's official motor oil sponsor.

The new agreement will allow Castrol to activate through multiple platforms including advertising, social media and on-site activations.
