What We Know So Far About the All-American Football Series?

The show draws inspiration from the real-life journey of former NFL linebacker Spencer Paysinger and highlights the struggles behind a successful athletic career, especially for young players searching for identity and opportunity. The drama shows the challenges faced by the players that can be easily related to by non-professionals. It gained popularity just after it premiered and garnered a wider audience over the years. 

Spencer is a football player from South Los Angeles who plays for the Beverly Hills High School football team. He is stuck between balancing his ambition and his personal life.
