The 2022 Fan Controlled Football season, nicknamed "Season 2.0",[1] is the second season of the Fan Controlled Football (FCF), a professional indoor football league.
The 2022 season introduced four new teams, The 8oki Football Club, Knights of Degen, Bored Ape Football Club and the Kingpins under the league's Ballerz Collective NFT project.[2] The league also announced a new $40 million dollar investment led by Animoca Brands and Delphi Digital[3] which allowed the league to build its own venue specifically for Fan Controlled Football in Pratt-Pullman Yards, Atlanta.[4] This was also the first season the league allowed fans to attend games.
The league's 2022 inaugural draft took place on April 14, 2022 with quarterback Deondre Francois being chosen with the first pick by the Bored Ape Football Club.[5] The league began play on April 16, 2022, with eight teams competing in a 28-game-format over seven weeks.
Players were paid weekly minimum of $400 to $750 plus room and board, while coaches got paid $3,500 per month with housing and meal plan.[6]
Teams[edit]
The 2022 season has eight teams. All teams have no geographic location that they are based in, similar to ESports teams. All teams share position coaches, doctors and trainers, marketing staffs and practice squad.[7]

Players[edit]
The FCF started its combines and scouting for players as early as January 2019, starting originally with asking fans to recommend players and then later holding combines in Atlanta, Dallas, Columbus and then Las Vegas.[16] Following the cancellation of the Summer 2020 season, the league held further combines in October 2020 in Houston[17] and Pittsburgh[18] then another in Atlanta in November 2020.[19] In December 2020, the FCF signed former Heisman trophy winner and NFL first round pick, quarterback Johnny Manziel[20] and Florida State quarterback Deondre Francois. They also signed former NFL player Quinn Porter,[21] Douglas McNeil III, Jeremiah Poutasi and former XFL players Damon Sheehy-Guiseppi and Quinton Flowers.
The league has no set teams with all players being drafted to teams before the first week of the season. This draft is done via voting by fans in the FCF app.[22] The same is done every week until the playoffs.[23] To stop a player from being drafted by other teams, fans can vote on using a "franchise tag" which will permanently attach the player to the team for the entire season.[24] Players can be selected by their own team in the draft to stop them from being drafted by another team.
Josh Gordon signed with the FCF on March 6, 2021 after being released by the Seattle Seahawks, entering the bubble soon after to appear in Week 4 as his FCF debut with the Zappers.[25] Robert Turbin also signed at the same time though entered the bubble later, making his debut appearance for the Beasts in the playoffs.[26]
