What's a squad?

On most fantasy platforms, one person manages a roster alone. On MESH, your squad does it together. A squad is a group of friends — any size — that manages a single roster and competes against other squads. Drafting, weekly lineups, trades, waiver moves: all group decisions.

This is MESH's 2026 NFL squads format, launching publicly this season — squad-based management is the whole game right now, with more formats coming.

Squad basics

• A squad can be any number of people. Technically even one — but some of the collaborative features will be pointless.
• Your squad can compete in multiple NFL leagues at the same time.
• You can be a member of multiple squads.

What if two of my squads are in the same league?

That's allowed. You'll be asked to pick which squad you're participating with in that league. You won't be counted for (or able to see) that league from your other squad. You can change your pick — and if anything gets weird, email [email protected].

Heads up on squad size

Some challenges and leagues may require a minimum squad size — so get your people in. See Creating a Squad for how to invite members.
