Rotoworld (formerly NBC Sports Edge) is an American fantasy sports and sports betting website. It features sports news and analysis for fantasy sports and sports betting.

Rotoworld was acquired by NBC Sports in 2006.[1] In 2019, the site underwent a redesign with a larger focus on video content, mobile, and new search tools.[2][3] In February 2021, Rotoworld was temporarily rebranded as NBC Sports Edge, carrying a larger emphasis on sports betting content and integration with NBC Sports television programming.[4] As of 2023, the site no longer carries the Edge branding. It no longer exists and its content has been integrated into the NBC Sports website.[5]
