Electronic Arts and The CW announced that a prime-time TV special focusing on the EA Sports Madden NFL 19 Classic event will air today from 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. Pacific and Eastern (8 p.m. to 9 p.m. Central and Mountain).

The special will chronicle the esports event, which took place over three days in December in Las Vegas. But it will also highlight the friendship and strength of Madden esports players following the August shooting at a competition in Jacksonville. That attack claimed the lives of two Madden players, Elijah Clayton and Taylor Robertson.
