As this year’s National Football League (NFL) season kicks off, many students around the school begin to reboot their fantasy football leagues once again in hopes of becoming the newest fantasy champion.

Fantasy football is an online game in which 4-16 players in a league choose which NFL players they want on their virtual “team”. Every week, each team faces off against a different opponent to see who gets the most points.

To score points in fantasy football, the chosen NFL  players must perform well in their game by racking up yards, catches, and touchdowns. Towards the end of the NFL regular season, the fantasy football playoffs begin to crown the champion of each fantasy football league. 

This virtual game has increased in popularity not only around the school but also around the entire country.

“Fantasy football is a great way to relax on Sunday and watch your ‘players’ score touchdowns. Any given team can win every week and that’s what makes it so enjoyable” senior Blake Heselius said.

It is essential to know who the best players are in the NFL to be prepared for the upcoming fantasy season. The list below can be used as a guide for who to choose in fantasy football.
