More XFL offensive Players
Saint Louis Battlehawks running back Matt Jones another running back with the right dimensions for the NFL backfield. Standing 6-foot-2 and weighing a solid 231-pounds, Jones brings a very physical style of running the ball from the University of Florida. He rushed the ball just 80 times in five games for 314 yards and a touchdown. A big bruising body back is just what the LA Rams need right now. Jones is just a jingle away.

Houston Roughnecks wide receiver Cam Phillips is difficult for me to project to the XFL. It’s almost as though he feels like a “mirage”. Standing 6-foot-0 and weighing 201-pounds, he is certainly large enough to fit an NFL role of wide receiver. So far, he’s been lights out in the XFL so far. In just five games, he has hauled in 31 passes for 455 yards and an outstanding nine touchdowns. That’s a touchdown in four receptions! That’s the “too good to be true” element to me. He’s certainly good enough to warrant a hard look. But caveat emptor on those stats.
Los Angeles Wildcats wide receiver Tre McBride is another hometown XFL hero who is doing very well in the new football league. Standing 6-foot-0 and weighing 210 pounds, he is a solid prospect for the NFL and the LA Rams. He too has been very productive, pulling in 16 receptions for 271 yards and 4 touchdowns. He also has an incredible score per four catches ratio going. A player out of William and Mary, he would be a solid prospect to sign for the 90 man roster.
