For those who enjoy spring football, the USFL and XFL merged late last year to form the United Football League. The new UFL is slated to begin play late next month.
The purpose of the UFL is to give those currently not on NFL rosters another path to the NFL. For some, it could be a return to the NFL for one last shot, or for others, it could be their first and only opportunity.
The Arlington Renegades upset the D.C. Defenders in last year’s XFL championship. In the USFL championship, the Birmingham Stallions defeated the Pittsburgh Maulers. Arlington, D.C. and Birmingham will all be a part of the new UFL.
There will be eight teams in the UFL. How many players on those eight UFL teams spent time in the NFL with the Washington Commanders? Whether on the practice squad or the 53-man roster, we look at 27 former Washington hopefuls now on UFL rosters.
