Is Quick Play the same as a fantasy league?

No. Quick Play uses real NFL or college football teams in a shorter one-on-one challenge. If you want to draft individual NFL players, manage rosters and play an entire season, use our two-person fantasy football league instead.

Do we need to wager money?

No. Quick Play uses optional, non-cash stakes, and 4th & 4play does not enforce rewards or punishments.
