Can't get enough football after the conclusion of the 2024 NFL draft?

Well, you're in luck. The UFL presents two games that will kick off at 7 p.m. ET on Saturday night, which should be shortly after the conclusion of the 89th NFL Annual Player Selection Meeting in Detroit.

The Arlington Renegades, last season's XFL champions, are still winless and aim to finally get that elusive first "W" when they host the in-state rival San Antonio Brahmas. At the same time, the Birmingham Stallions put their unbeaten record on the line when they pay a visit to Rice Stadium to face the Houston Roughnecks.

Here's what you need to know to catch the spring football action this weekend:

What is the UFL?

The UFL is a merger between two competing spring professional football leagues, the USFL and XFL.

The recreated USFL — with team names harkening back to its 1980s ancestor — opened play in April 2022 with all eight teams headquartered and playing home games in Birmingham, Alabama. For the 2023 season, the league expanded its home stadium footprint.

Dany Garcia and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson purchased the XFL out of bankruptcy for $15 million and rebooted the 2020 version of the league. The XFL was successfully able to complete its first season in 2023.

The new, merged league was announced on Dec. 31, 2023.
