FX is kicking off a brand new sports-centered series, and they’ve found the perfect subject to do it. Titled American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez, the dramatized deep dive into the life of the football all-star turned brutal killer has set its premiere date for Tuesday, September 17 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on FX. The arrival of the production will celebrate a two-episode premiere with the following eight installments to air weekly. Those Hulu subscribers who often catch their FX content on the streamer can expect episodes to drop the following day, while international audiences can look to Disney+ for a future release date.

A name known both to followers of sports and true crime (a bizarre crossover that very few infamous names hold), Hernandez started his career in the game of college ball, playing for the Florida Gators. Perhaps foreshadowing the tragic events that were to come, even as a college freshman, Hernandez was known for his quick temper and party lifestyle, with the latter often pouring gasoline on the former. This was part of the reason that, despite his extreme talent and dedication to the game, the tight end wasn’t selected to join the New England Patriots until the fourth round of draft selections in 2010. While his skills shined on the field, his personal life was tarnished by poor decisions and hanging with the wrong crowd, both of which would inevitably tie him to several police investigations and a murder conviction.
