Is it possible to remove the common background from a set of images using Photoshop?

Question

I know you can remove people, cars, etc in the foreground of a stack of photos taken from a set position - essentially only KEEPING the common background. But my problem is the opposite of that...

I have 90 images of football players, all taken from a tripod in a set location. Is it possible to use a stack (or some other method) to process these photos and automatically REMOVE the common background in them - leaving behind layers containing only the players (and whatever other minor background changes there may have been)?

Answer 1

Since CC2018 Photoshop has a Select Subject functionality which isn't ideal depending on the subject and background, but may produce decent results and can be automated using this AM command:

executeAction(stringIDToTypeID('autoCutout'), undefined, DialogModes.NO);

This might work depending on the files you have.
