New York online sports betting is on the rise as football once again takes over the Empire State.

After a sluggish summer, the New York Gaming Commission reported $329,981,056 in online sports bets for the week ending Sept. 11, an increase of more than $86 million from the week before.

The increase coincided with the first full week of the NFL and the second week of College Football. It’s a welcome start to September, after August’s total online sports betting handle did not eclipse $1 billion.
