Approved
2026 Rookie Draft
Roster-Cut and Positional-Limit Deadline Updated
Previously, managers were required to reduce their rosters and return to positional-limit compliance the day after the annual rookie and free-agent draft concluded.
During the 2026 draft, the league voted to move that deadline to the same day as the NFL’s final roster cuts.
Positional limits remain suspended during the offseason until that deadline.
2027
Scheduled
Full PPR Begins
Beginning with the 2027 season, receptions increase from 0.5 points to 1.0 point.
The change was approved by supermajority at the 2025 rules meeting.
2026
Now Active
Expanded Starting Lineup
The additional RB/WR/TE flex position approved in 2024 is now active, expanding the weekly starting lineup from 10 players to 11 starters.
Total roster size remains 24 active roster players plus 2 taxi-squad players.
