Our guest today is KC Joyner, a
fantasy football guru and pioneer of the football analytics
revolution, featured on ESPN and The Athletic. He is Founder of the
Football Scientist, a data analytics subscription service designed

KC left his career in telecom to pursue a lifelong dream of writing
a Bill James-style book about football. 19 months later, his
detailed tape breakdowns of the 2003 and 2004 season led to the
self-publication of Joyner’s groundbreaking book Scientific
Football in 2005.
Since his first book was released, he has joined forced with the
likes of ESPN and most recently the writing team at The Athletic.
KC is a nationally published author and his other books include
Blindsided, Why the Left Tackle is Overrated and Other Contrarian
Football Thoughts.
In today’s episode, we discuss KC’s background and how the The
Football Scientist publication came to be. We then dive in to the
quant approach he uses for fantasy football and how it could help
you win your league this year, with several stops in between.
