Today @usmlr announced that @DallasJackals will not be participating in the 2025 season. We are now in discussions with the league to ensure that players’ voices are heard for making the dispersal process equitable.

Some said a CBA like this would never happen. #WeSaidNow. The Players just secured freedom over their careers and made history as the first American major pro sport to eliminate the draft. Player freedom secured. Read more about our new CBA via link in bio. #wesaidnow
