The USFL is back for another season in 2023 after coming back to life following a 36-year hiatus. After debuting in 1982, the original United States Football League enjoyed a four-season run until breaking apart in 1986. Now the league is in its fourth attempt at reviving the brand but has another competitor, with the XFL joining the fray in 2023.
With the USFL, you can get your football fix during the NFL offseason instead of spending your spring without the game you love. Stay up to date on the most significant events in the USFL, complete with a weekly schedule detailing who plays and when.
There are no USFL games today. The 2023 USFL season will kick off on April 15, when the defending champion Philadelphia Stars take on the Memphis Showboats at 4:30 PM ET.
Later at 7:30 PM, the New Jersey Generals take the field against the Birmingham Stallions to close out Saturday’s USFL schedule.
