Shares of Skillz (NYSE: SKLZ) rose 14.4% in February, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. All of these gains came early in the month after the company announced a multi-year agreement with the NFL.

There are pay-to-play games, from which Skillz gets a cut, the video game developer gets a cut, and gamers can earn a cash prize.
