Subway continues raising the bar when it comes to fast food, and the new entries spotlight a new direction. With the help of  NY Knicks rookie Kevin Knox the brand introduced its newest steak sandwiches as well as exciting new offerings that are coming this fall to the restaurant.

Speaking of his association with the brand, Knox said, “I’m partnering with Subway to show people new sandwiches like the Chipotle Cheesesteak. Subway is cool because they’re are so many different options to create sandwiches. When I was younger, my AAU team would go to Subway in between games, because my coach knew everyone could find something they wanted to eat.”

As he puts it, “In New York, I want to step up to the challenge and help my team in any way possible through my play and leadership on and off the court. Of course we have end goals of playoffs and Rookie of the Year honors, but before that I want to tackle what’s on my plate now and develop as a basketball player and teammate.”

It’s easy to understand Knox’s excitement. Subway restaurants are taking their steak sandwich to new levels with the introduction of the NEW Chipotle Cheesesteak. Crafted on the new Sunflower Crunch bread, the Chipotle Cheesesteak offers guests a bold twist on Subway’s popular Steak & Cheese sandwich. The sandwich delivers combined flavors of spicy and smoky, with jalapeños and Chipotle Southwest sauce topped on fresh veggies and freshly baked bread with a Sunflower Crunch topping—available nationwide as part of the Subway Steak Collection.

The Subway Steak Collection features three mouthwatering steak and cheese sandwiches and wrap:

• NEW! Chipotle Cheesesteak made with steak, shredded Monterey cheddar cheese, crisp lettuce, sliced tomatoes, green peppers, red onion and jalapeños and dressed with a smoky Chipotle Southwest sauce all on top of freshly baked Sunflower Crunch bread, which is available for a limited time only.
• Signature Steak & Cheese sub, with steak and shredded Monterey cheddar, and your choice of veggies piled high on freshly baked bread.
• Chipotle Southwest Steak & Cheese Signature Wrap features savory steak, shredded Monterey cheddar cheese, crisp lettuce, sliced tomatoes, green peppers, and onions, topped with jalapeños, guacamole, and a spicy Chipotle Southwest sauce—all wrapped in a tasty Tomato Basil Wrap.

  

Subway continues to explore new food innovations to give its guests more of what they want, from bold combinations to new flavors to customizable favorites. Most recently, the brand unveiled a strategic partnership with Tastemade, a modern media brand inspiring the taste of a generation through entertainment, commerce and experiences with 250 million monthly active viewers. The partnership will give Subway a distinct competitive advantage in the market.
