UFL opens on March 30: Origins of spring pro football & interview with expert Anthony Miller

For the past two years, the universe of professional football has sported two spring leagues, the XFL and the USFL. Both leagues were reboots of earlier attempts to become viable NFL-rival leagues. Since we know Cleveland Browns fans, and Ohioans in general, love football, we thought a little background on the newest spring football league made sense.

This past off-season, the two entities merged into one league with a rebrand now called the “United Football League (UFL).” They kept four teams from each spring league and will begin their 2024 season on March 30.
