The Linemen beat the Jousters 26–23 in the first and only Mega Bowl, and won the TSL championship.[1][2] Linemen QB Ryan Willis won both final[3] and regular season MVP awards.[4]

Format and rules

edit

The 2021 season kicked off on Thursday, May 6 and was divided to two divisions that played in hub cities: The North Division in Indianapolis and the South Division in Houston. Each division champion will advance to the 2021 TSL Championship game that will take place on June 19.[5]

The 2021 season featured new rules that aim to improve the game, specifically introducing a new overtime format, the “spot and choose” rule, which means that the team that wins the overtime coin toss was to pick the spot of the ball, while the other team would choose whether to play offense or defense.[6] A similar rule was proposed by the Baltimore Ravens after the 2020 NFL season.[7]

Players

edit

The player participation fee for the 2021 season was $2,000, with exception for players who had been in an NFL training camp within the past three years, who were not required to pay.[8][9] According to league CEO Brian Woods, the preference was for TSL coaches, players and staff to be vaccinated for COVID-19 before the season begins. If not, they were asked for proof of a negative test upon arrival and were subject to daily testing thereafter.[10]

Every team started the season with 35 to 41 players roster,[11] and were allowed to make changes throughout the season.

Tryouts

edit

In March 2021, TSL announced that they reached a partnership agreement with Stephen Austin's American National Combines,[12] and were holding tryouts for the first time in league history.[13] They also declared that players who were on an active roster during TSL's fall 2020 season are not required to participate in the tryouts.[14][15]

Notable players

edit

On April 16, the first player for the 2021 TSL season was announced, as former Syracuse and Dallas Renegades QB Eric Dungey confirmed he will play for the Blues,[16] although he was later accepted tryout invite to Cincinnati Bengals rookie minicamp,[17] and was later signed to their 90-men roster.[18] On later date the league revealed the other Quarterbacks who will play, including seven-year NFL veteran Ryan Mallett (Generals),[19][20] former XFL players Luis Perez (Jousters),[21][22] Brandon Silvers (Conquerors),[23] and Nick Fitzgerald (Sea Lions),[24] and three former P5 colleges QB's Brian Lewerke (Alphas),[25] Keller Chryst (Aviators),[26] and Ryan Willis (Linemen).

On May 12, after the first week was concluded, TSL announced that former Super Bowl champion Brandon Marshall was joining the Generals[27] after strong showing at HUB Football camp,[28] but before the Generals game on week 2 it was revealed that Marshall decided to pursue NFL opportunities instead of joining the league.[29][10]

39 players with XFL experience were on TSL rosters,[30] and 19 players who participated in the Fan Controlled Football 2021 season (Joseph Putu, Roman Tatum, David Gilbert, Kwadarrius Smith, Curtis Collins, Dominique Martin, Jaylen Flye-Sadler, EJ price, JaMichael Edwards Lott, Deondre Francois, Lawerence Keys, Dwayne Wallace, Donald Boone, LaDarius Galloway, Andrew Jamiel, KaVontae Turpin, Saige Young, Cecil Cherry and Antonio Dawkins).

Controversy

edit

In November the league was sued for failing to pay $1.4 million in bills during a nine-week stay in Indianapolis, for the use of Lucas Oil Stadium ($235,000 for six games) and hotel stay ($1.1 million for 4,740 room nights).[275] Also, Butler University sued TSL for about $33,000 in unpaid bills, for its use of the Sellick Bowl for practices.[276]

Aftermath

edit
Main article: 2022 USFL season

On June 3, 2021, Woods announced that he had acquired the remaining extant trademarks of the United States Football League with intent of launching a USFL-branded league in 2022, with Fox Sports remaining as a partner in the new USFL.[277] What was to become of The Spring League remained, at the time, an unresolved question, but according to the initial announcement TSL was to continue,[278] probably as a scouting showcase or developmental operation. It was later reported that TSL in no longer associated with the new USFL.[279]

On February 18, 2022, Woods stated that TSL was "no longer operational."[280]
