It’s that time of the year (time flies, doesn’t it?). That’s right, you’re on the verge of drafting your 2026 fantasy football team(s). It’s an exciting and fun time of year, as you’ll be looking to build a championship-caliber squad you can be proud of and boast about the entire offseason! But before you start your draft research—you'll be able to find everything you need in the Sports Illustrated Fantasy Football Draft Kit—,you have a very important task to accomplish.
You have to name your fantasy football squad!
Your team name can be personal; for me, that might be Fabs Five, The Fabtastic Four or The Fab and The Furious. You can also use names inspired by your favorite NFL team. For me, a Cowboys fan, that might be Dak to the Future, The Dak Side, Dex Dispensers or CeeDee’s Nuts (crude, but common).
Luckily for you, I’m not only here to help you win a title … but to name your squad! I’ve already done the work to help you find your team name … whether it’s based on a player—I’ve already posted my 50 fantasy football team names based on the 2026 rookie class—or references to movie titles, TV shows, songs or pop culture.
Check them out … hopefully one of them fits you!
