Coverage

How is each USFL game covered?

All USFL games feature full play-by-play coverage.

Integration

What format are date fields presented in?

Date values are presented in the ISO 8601 standard format.

Timestamp fields are in UTC. These could include scheduled start times or play-by-play event timestamps. Examples: scheduled="2024-02-11T23:30:00+00:00", created_at="2024-02-11T23:43:20+00:00"

Date-only fields reflect local league convention and are not UTC-adjusted. These could include season start dates and birth dates. Examples: start_date="2024-08-16", date_of_birth="1984-09-22"

How do I locate the TTL (Time to Live)/cache on an API endpoint?

The cache (in seconds) can be accessed in the returned header information on each RESTful API call, under cache-control.

ex. cache-control: max-age=1, public, s-maxage=1 or cache-control: public, must-revalidate, max-age=120

Statistics

How are assisted sacks calculated in the feeds?

Assisted sacks are credited when two players sack the quarterback. We provide this in the Play-by-Play feed and Game Boxscore as an integer. Those sacks are rolled up into the sacks stat and can be a float.

For example, if a player had 3 ast_sacks and 2 sacks in a game his game-level sack number would be 3.5.
