The Arizona Rattlers and Orlando Predators played in the old AFL, but the new league's Chicago and Salt Lake City teams did not. The league will also have teams from the AFL offshoot arenafootball2, as well as at least one team from another indoor league. It will be based in Tulsa.

I went to the press conference for the joining of this new league and as of right now the pay for players will be comparable to what Af2 was paying. They said that it may not be as low as $200 a game but it most likely won't be anymore than $600. Just depends on what market your in I guess |
