The XFL’s X Lab Tested Future Football Tech at the Spring League

The XFL pulled together vendors across sports technology earlier this month and asked them to do something unusual: work together.

At the X Lab, a showcase in Austin during the Spring League on the weekend of Apr. 6, the XFL pulled together nearly two-dozen vendors across athlete management, tracking, and operations to imagine how it might be able to use technology to enhance the game of football.

The new league, which plans to launch in January 2020, has been in the midst of a significant amount of research and development, including an ongoing exploration of rules changes.
