Gridiron is a custom typeface family commissioned by ESPN magazine for their 2013 College Football Preview issue.

Three versions of the Gridiron typeface were developed for different applications: The lightest weight is Quarterback and is used for headlines where legibility is a priority. The two bolder weights are Fullback and the more intricately structured Touchdown. Touchdown was created with an inline that can be highlighted in a contrasting colour to create dynamic headlines that combine light & bold weights.
