How to approach it
The pool is enormous, so the real work is scouting for obscurity rather than recall. Begin by picking one league and one roster tier — a promoted club's bench, a franchise's special-teams unit, a newly signed full-back nobody has watched yet — then walk the roster until a name surfaces that you have never heard spoken aloud. Resist the first five names that arrive; they are the ones everyone else types. Check spelling variants and initials, because unusual transliterations and apostrophes tend to hide names that few solvers think of. Before committing, ask whether the person has appeared in a competitive fixture this season; a name technically on the books is what the question allows, and that margin is where the deep answers live.
Get a hint
Start from the sheer size of the pool: two leagues, dozens of squads and a spread of roles that runs from kicking specialists to full-backs who barely feature.
A little more
Walk a roster the way a scout would, through reserve defenders, third-choice goalkeepers, undrafted newcomers and academy call-ups, and you reach the seam almost nobody else digs.
One step further
Spelling is a legitimate lever: surnames buried late in the alphabet, double-barrelled forms and odd transliterations usually sit in a shallower bucket than a name everyone can type.

Why these answers count
Almost everything clusters at 85 points: 2505 of the recorded answers landed in that band, which tells you the puzzle rewards depth of roster knowledge rather than household fame. The single 100-point answer, Tom King, stands alone at the top because apparently nobody else offered it. Names such as A.J. Haulcy and Aaron Banks, both at 85, are typical of that winning tier — players a devoted follower of one team knows and the wider public does not. Adetomiwa Adebawore, also at 85, fits the same profile: a rotational defender whose surname is long enough to stick only with people who actually watch the snaps. The 517 answers sitting at 60 points are the more familiar end of the scale, the picks a casual viewer reaches for first. Rarity drives the scoring, so the lesson runs against instinct: the more obvious a name feels, the less it is worth.
