Arizona Rattlers

The Arizona Rattlers opened their 2026 Indoor Football League season on Saturday, March 28, showcasing a roster with approximately 80 percent new players as the team hosted the San Diego Strike Force at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale. Under head coach Kevin Guy, the Rattlers introduced new quarterback Max Meylor, who previously led Green Bay to the IFL championship game, as the team looks to rebound following a close playoff exit last season. The franchise approaches the new campaign with continuity in leadership despite significant roster turnover, intent on delivering another competitive season in the Western Conference.
