| - RFL Rosters were limited to 37 active players and five taxi-squad members with salaries in the range of $30,000 to $65,000 per player and team salary caps of $1,500,000. Former college standouts such as Josh Booty (LSU), Stewart Patridge (Ole Miss), Andre Ware (Houston), and Dameyune Craig (Auburn) were signed to RFL teams in the hopes that fans would turn out to see former local stars. Patridge, playing for the Mississippi Pride, was the all-RFL quarterback in 1999. The commissioner of the league was John "Gus" Bell and Ron Floridia was the Assistant Commissioner of the Regional Football League. Despite some efforts made to resume play for a second season, the league folded after that shortened 1999 season. The announced beginning of the XFL for 2001 precluded any realistic chance of the league resuming operations.
