Season 2 starts april 16, real nfl players are involved, and is a 7 on 7 game on a 50 yd field.
Fans call the plays and make the rules. you need a app to participate as a fan.

here is what I found interesting
The concept, a fully interactive football league run entirely by fans, originated after the FCF founders - Cohen, Sohrob Farudi, Patrick Dees and Ray Austin - bought two indoor football league teams in 2016. One was run as a traditional team, the other was run by fans.

The fan-run team did way better than the non-fan-run team by every measure,” Cohen said. “Not only did they beat them on the field, but they scored more points and had more touchdowns. All their offensive stats were better and then all the business stats were better. Sold more tickets. More people watched the game.”

The four founders left the league after one season and went on to launch Fan Controlled Football, which debuted last year in a bubble environment at the Infinite Energy Center in Georgia during the pandemic.

I doubt I will be able to watch but it sound interesting and fun.
