Fans of football who still want to see some games in the spring can look forward to the XFL 2023 season, know about the TV schedule
The league has released its schedule for 2023. The regular season will last 10 weeks, and the playoffs will be similar to the College Football Playoff, with only the top four teams making it.
Even though there are only eight teams in the league, a much higher percentage of them have qualified for the playoffs. This makes for a very exciting and competitive postseason. On Saturday, February 18, 2023, which is less than a week after the NFL Super Bowl 57, the 2023 XFL season starts.

The XFL 2023 season runs from February 18 to May 13, and the official website of the league lists all of the games. With new rule changes meant to speed up and make the game more intense, the league has promised a unique and exciting football season.
Overall, the XFL Games 2023 season is a great chance for football fans to enjoy some high-quality football action in the spring. The league has made it easy for fans to watch their favourite teams play all season long by putting all games on TV and live streaming.
The WWE CEO Vince McMahon started the professional football league XFL (Xtreme Football League) in 2001. It had rule changes like no fair catches on punts and a shorter play clock to make the game faster and more exciting. But the league only lasted one season before it was shut down because it was losing money.
Vince McMahon shut down the XFL 3 years ago after reportedly burning through $200M.
But Dwayne Johnson & his partners purchased the assets for $15M out of bankruptcy, and the league officially returns today.

In 2020, a new group of owners led by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Dany Garcia, and RedBird Capital brought the XFL back. The new league has eight teams and has changed some of its rules, like making overtime like a shootout and changing the way kickoffs work to make players safer.
The XFL season usually takes place when the NFL season isn’t going on. This gives football fans a chance to watch football in the spring. The 2023 XFL season will be 10 weeks long, with a playoff system similar to the College Football Playoff and a championship game at the end.
