Investors see lots to like in Fan Controlled Football. Players have a harder time.

The FCF's 150-plus players earn considerably less than their counterparts in other pro football leagues. The FCF offers $750 per week as base pay for quarterbacks; $550 for offensive linemen and tight ends; $350 for running backs and wide receivers; and $450 for defensive players. They can earn hundreds in bonuses each week for winning and via fan voting for individual categories such as best end zone celebration. The league estimates that between 50 and 70 players are awarded bonus money in some amount each week, with increased totals during the playoffs.
