I’ve always been surprised Chris Jones hasn’t been able to carve himself a role in the nfl. He was damn good in college.

I believe they have some sort of deal worked out now that is essentially just that. That's why they're testing out new things like the kickoff rule and whatnot.

You’re right

The XFL does have an agreement with the NFL to work on new rules and officiating. And it has a deal with the NFL Alumni Academy, an independent group that trains prospects to be ready for the low end of NFL rosters. Those who are not chosen by an NFL team are now guaranteed a spot in an XFL training camp.

The NFL has a free developmental league for players, coaches and refs.

It’s called the NCAA bro

I mean that’s what it is already? Nfl is heavily investing in it.

Did the usfl fold?

I think it’s still going too. Wasn’t there a commercial for it during the Super Bowl?

I don’t see a way both the xfl and the usfl exist. Would like to see xfl and usfl merge into one bigger developmental league and call it a day.

That's what NFL Europe was and it was decent football to watch. It succeeded in providing talent for the NFL: Kurt Warner, Dante Hall, Jake Delhomme, and Brad Johnson were some names I remember playing there.

I wouldn't mind them staying "separate" and the champion of each league plays in their own mini-super bowl. Obviously there are some considerable role differences from league to league, but that should be easy enough to overcome...

That would make for a fun conclusion to the off-season.
