Roster: NFL ​

Your roster is the collection of player shares you use to compete in tournaments. Managing it well is core to finishing consistently.

TL;DR ​

  • Your roster is the collection of player shares you use to compete
  • A maximum of 40 players from your roster can earn rewards in a single tournament
  • Bench players to take them out of tournament eligibility without releasing them
  • Players marked DNP do not count toward the cap

The Roster page ​

The Roster page shows everything you hold, with overview information and per-player detail:

  • Roster value
  • Shares held and eligibility status
  • Your division
  • Roster allocation information
  • Recent form

Filter by position, matches remaining, price change period, age, or bench status to find what you need quickly. Sort by form, contracts, or holdings.

Tournament roster cap ​

Only 40 players from your roster can earn rewards in a single tournament.

Key rules:

  • All players are active and unbenched by default, unless you are already at the tournament cap when you sign them, in which case they are benched automatically
  • Players marked DNP do not count toward the 40-player cap
  • Once 40 players have had their game start during the tournament window, any further players do not contribute to your rewards, even if they play

The cap is a player count, not a budget. You can hold more than 40 players. You just cannot send more than 40 into one tournament.

This cap applies to in-season tournaments. Between seasons, NFL runs off-season tournaments, where the 40-player cap does not apply.

Benching ​

Benching a player removes them from tournament eligibility without releasing them.

  • Tap a player to bench or unbench them
  • Benched players do not count toward your 40-player cap
  • Benched players do not use a contract
  • You still own the shares

Once you confirm your selection it stays in place until you change it. You do not need to update it every week.

Use the bench to stop fringe players filling your 40-player cap.

Contracts tab ​

Every player you hold comes with contracts. Think of each contract as one more game that player can turn out and score in. On the Contracts tab you can:

  • Check how many games each player has left in them
  • Spot players running low before they stop scoring for you
  • Select them to renew their contracts, one at a time or in bulk

For the full breakdown of states, renewals, and costs, see Contracts.
