While Vince McMahon promises to bring back a revamped XFL in 2020, a son of McMahon's partner in the original short-lived XFL venture said his football league will come first. And some big NFL names will be involved.

Charlie Ebersol, who directed a documentary on the XFL that aired last year as part of ESPN's 30 for 30 series, announced Tuesday that his league, the Alliance of American Football, plans to debut Feb. 9, 2019, the week after Super Bowl LIII. The season will run 10 weeks and will have 50-man teams.

While McMahon's league is backed by McMahon's money, Ebersol's league is backed by others, including former Minnesota Vikings defensive end Jared Allen, Peter Thiel's Founders Fund and The Chernin Group, which, among other investments, owns a significant share of Barstool Sports.

The Dolphins were hoping for a visit from Emmanuel Lamur, but the linebacker didn’t leave Oakland without agreeing to terms, reports Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Lamur will reunite with two of his former Bengals coaches in defensive coordinator Paul Guenther and linebackers coach David Lippincott. Lamur, 28, spent his first four seasons in Cincinnati.

Good Luck to you, Emmanuel...hopefully, you'll be more than just a footnote, like you were here.
