For the new season, The Beasts would franchise-tag Quinn Porter and draft Jordus Smith with the first round pick in the FCF draft. First game in the season would be against the Glacier Boyz, where they beat them 36 to 20. In Week 2, The Beasts would franchise-tag Jordus Smith and draft the Heavy Hitters defensive unit in the first round pick in the FCF draft. The Beasts would go against Shoulda Been Stars and lose 24 to 6. In Week 3, The Beasts would franchise-tag LaMarcus Caradine and draft Jacoby Herring in the first round pick in the FCF draft.
The Beasts made a controversial decision in Week 3 when they drafted Alphonso Howard, who's been the Beasts backup quarterback for the first 3 games, for the starting quarterback position instead of Jason Stewart, who would be drafted by the Kingpins. The Beasts would go against the 80ki Football Club and lose 44 to 38. On April 29, The Beasts recruited Martavis Bryant to the team. In Week 4, the FCF League would move the Beasts back-up quarterback, Dentarrius Yon to the Knights of Degen after the departure of Danny Southwick, and moved Jason Stewart back to the Beasts as Yon's position. The Beasts went against the Zappers and beat them 28 to 0, being the first team in FCF history to shutout a game.
The Beasts would be a part of the first trade in FCF trade history, trading Jacoby Herring to the Knights of Degen in exchange for Dentarrius Yon, and trading Jason Stewart and the Beasts' draft picks to the Zappers for their draft picks. The Beasts would have a rematch against the Glacier Boyz in week 5, losing by 34 to 18. In week 6, the Beasts would lose 34 to 16 to the Should Been Stars, sealing the Stars to the playoffs.
