The NFL football season is over, but football isn't going anywhere for a few months.

The Alliance of American Football, an eight-team professional football league, founded by Charlie Ebersol and Bill Polian, will debut Saturday at 8 p.m. on CBS. The league's games will be televised through broadcast partners CBS, The NFL Network and TNT.

The league is comprised of former NFL coaches and players, and has some rule changes that could be fun to watch. There are no TV timeouts. No halftime. Teams must attempt a two-point conversion after every touchdown. There will be no kickoffs. There's also no onside kicks. If a team wants to go for the equivalent of an onside kick, they get ball on their own 35 and will face 4th & 10. If they convert, they keep going.

The season runs through the end of April, and NFL teams will be taking notice.

"It's really interesting for us from a personnel standpoint and our scouting staff," Lions general manager Bob Quinn said. "There's actually a couple players that were on our practice squad, that are actually going to go down and play in that league, which they should.

"They came in for a couple weeks, practiced, did a good job for us, so we had some conversations with them about, 'Hey, do you want to come back and sign with us, or do you want to go play?' And those guys had a chance to go play in that league, which I think is great.

"It can really be helpful to these fringe players that might be on a practice squad, might be capable of being on a 90-man roster, but just need more playing time. So, we're going to scout that league. They're open for us to come down and evaluate. We'll get their film once they start playing their games in February and March, so we're going to scout them, yeah, for sure."
