Jesters

Their Story

The Jesters entered the league as an expansion team in 2007.  Their first order of business would be drafting Brian Westbrook (PHI-RB) at the 3rd overall spot followed by Chad “Ocho Cinco” (CIN-WR) in the 2nd round.  Both players ended up being solid picks, but the Jesters would fall a bit flat in their inaugural year with a 5-7 record.

Their next three seasons showed much more promise as they made the playoffs each season.  However, they would all end abruptly in the first round of the playoffs. The next few seasons would be a roller coaster ride.  All ending up just short of the playoffs. 

However, in 2019, things clicked.  Players like Aaron Rodgers, Michael Thomas, and Marc Ingram helped pave the way to their first League Championship.  Wins over The Misfits and Sons Of Anarchy in the playoffs would lead to the big prize.  

The Jesters fell flat defending their championship the following season.   They managed just 1 win in 2020 to finish the season with a 1-11 record.  Ouch. The Jesters wouldn’t be held down for long though. In 2021, though they bounced back with a visit to the Championship Game. The Midway Monsters took them down, but it was a good redemption season.
