I thought the official formal CFL-NFL arrangement ended years ago?

According to what I read previously the CFLs TV deal in Canada with TSN is expired or expiring after this season and with no attending fans the league is pretty hosed right now so some sort of merger with the XFL isn't surprising

No the tv deal goes to 2025.

there's a lot of ways to work together without making xfl teams play against cfl teams and they're going to do all of them all night long

It makes 0 sense for the XFL to merge with the CFL. How does that help the XFL business model? I don't see Fox wanting to show Rider/Argo games and the whole reason for the XFL is tv money.

If anything I think there's gonna be marketing help from the XFL in exchange for player movement/sharing stuff.

Also the merger stuff with the CFL is dead as it never made any drat sense.

Let’s just say I heard a very credible rumor that we could be down to one spring football league very soon. And it might surprise you which league is the one that might fold/merge.

The Axios article says this:

Game broadcasts of the combined league are likely to be split between Fox and XFL media partner Disney, according to the source. The USFL also has a broadcast agreement with NBC, although it's not yet been determined if that will continue.
