Okay here's my pitch

You control one specific player. Manipulate the narrative to avoid too many branches. First, not every season game necessarily matters. Second, you have the player not be active in some plays. Third, you have a bunch of side quest type games where you play in the park or you just do practice with your friends. Whatever

Depending on who you hang out with and how you treat them and help (or don't) with their problems, affects how they do in games. Do you spend your free time blazing with the stoners or do you help your QB stand up to his alcoholic dad etc

If you wanted to get real nuts make it so that the story isn't directly related to how well you do in the games, like Pyre sorta. Have the alcoholic dad and the girlfriends and boyfriends be the main draw with the games serving as a kind of backdrop that affects the mood (winning or losing) but not the events

just make persona but instead of high school you're an NFL safety

there's an s-link where you convince your linebacker to retire because of repeated head injuries

the head coach is always loving furious with you because you always show up to practice exhausted from fighting poo poo during the dark hour

There's an ongoing fanfic now at probably hundreds of thousands of words where Max and Chloe join an underground PMC following the events of Life is Strange.

There were a couple years where sports series got really bad about completely leaving the physical realm, especially as they went on and on, but most series these days are more grounded. They still do that, everyone reacts to everything kind of stuff tho lol. Haikyu!! has a vollyball match that's ten episodes long it loving rules.

The first sports anime is the baseball series Star of the Giants and it has an episode that consists entirely of one pitch and one hit.

The best sports anime is Gundam Build Fighters. Don't watch the bad sequels except for like one and a half episodes of the first sequel.

You're hired! Just put in lootboxes, 4 different but all terrible endings, loot, crafting, a subscription service, pump out even more content every 4 weeks, survive any lawsuits for dances, celebrations, or general likeness, and include some Star Wars characters. And then make another one for next year.
