The XFL is a professional American football league that was founded in 2018. It aims to provide an alternative to the National Football League (NFL) by offering a faster-paced game and innovative rules. The league features eight teams and emphasizes player safety and fan engagement, with unique broadcasting options and interactive experiences. The XFL originally launched in 2001 but folded after one season. It was revived in 2020 by Vince McMahon, the founder of WWE. Although the league faced challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it has plans to return, continuing its mission to entertain football fans with a fresh approach.
