NFL fans are furious with an update to a popular fantasy football service.
ESPN has totally overhauled its fantasy football app ahead of the 2025 season, and fans aren’t thrilled with the change.


The NFL season is set to begin in just a few weeks, which means fantasy football fans are already drafting their teams.
However, team managers were surprised when they opened the app this week to find major changes made across the platform.
The changes included a new logo, different font sizes, and many changes to player analysis.
Player pages are now completely different and there is a trending players bar which has caused players outrage.
They were quick to vent these concerns on social media.
“I know everyone on this platform that cares already complained, but this ESPN fantasy app update is absolutely disgusting,” one fan said.
“ESPN Fantasy app update is the worst thing I’ve ever seen. Font is atrocious and it is so zoomed in, can barely see any of the roster,” another fan said.
“Whoever made this decision needs to be fired!” a third fan said.
“I hate change & espn fantasy completely changed the look of their app,” a fourth fan said.
“The @espnfantasy app update is horrendous,” a fifth fan said.
Now, it isn’t all negatives for the new version of the fantasy app.
ESPN made some quality of life changes that are positive for fans.
It is now much easier for a team manager to change their photo on the app.
There is also now an updated practice feature for fans trying to perfect their draft strategies.
