“ American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez ” stars Josh Rivera as Hernandez, Patrick Schwarzenegger as Tebow and more celebrities playing the real-life athletes and people involved with the case. The 10-episode miniseries was created by Stuart Zicherman and executive produced by Ryan Murphy. It premieres on FX on Sept. 17.

The first season of the anthology series focuses on the New England Patriots star who was convicted of murder in 2015 and subsequently died by suicide in 2017.

Mired by Wikipedia-like plotting, clunky dialogue, and an exorbitant runtime, FX's latest "Story" hits its stride whenever it centers the perils of sports culture.
