ESPN Fantasy Prepares for Exciting 2025 Season with New Features

BRISTOL, Conn. — ESPN Fantasy is gearing up for the 2025 season with innovative features to enhance the user experience for fantasy football managers. As fans prepare for draft day, the platform introduces several upgrades designed to improve roster management and engagement.

The most notable addition is the Gridiron Gauntlet tournament, which invites players to compete for the title of best fantasy football manager. This tournament aims to create an exciting competitive environment for fantasy enthusiasts.

Further improvements include a customized home screen, where weekly rankings from ESPN analysts will allow users to easily assess player performance. Additionally, the platform introduces an “analyst’s picks” module that highlights key players and trends to monitor, helping managers make informed decisions.

In the matchup view, users will find a more streamlined interface that provides quick access to scores of ongoing games. The new live in-game projections will automatically update based on player performance, keeping managers informed as the action unfolds.

Enhanced player cards will offer comprehensive information, including historical stats and career bios, while a dynamic roster dashboard will notify users of important tasks, such as checking the waiver wire. This is intended to foster more proactive engagement with team management.

Finally, the add/drop process has been optimized. Recommended players for addition and trending pickups will now appear more prominently, allowing for quicker roster adjustments. Leagues created on ESPN will also feature schedules ending in Week 17, accommodating various league sizes.

As the countdown to the 2025 NFL season begins, ESPN Fantasy encourages managers to utilize these exciting new tools to enhance their draft and overall fantasy experience.
