The NFL is tough to compete with for eyeballs, even during the offseason. That doesn’t stop folks from trying to make a pro spring league a thing, though.
The USFL is rebooting for a new season which began today in Birmingham, where all of the games will be played.
One former Seahawks QB has already hit the highlight reel. Watch Alex McGough throw a double-pump bomb for a touchdown.

Mcgough spent the 2021 preseason as one of Seattle’s third/fourth string QBs. He was waived on August 23.
