chongli Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 (edited) https://www.al.com/sports/2022/11/aj-mccarron-chosen-in-xfl-quarterback-draft.html "Former Alabama All-American AJ McCarron is a member of the St. Louis Battlehawks after the XFL allocated its quarterback pool on Tuesday ahead of the spring football league’s draft on Wednesday." “A.J. brings us a championship pedigree,” Battlehawks coach Anthony Becht said. “He has seven years of NFL experience as a starting and backup quarterback. Unfortunately, A.J. battled through several injuries during that time which limited him from playing additional games. I feel like his time is now. A.J. will bring a very high football IQ, great leadership qualities and invaluable experience to the St. Louis Battlehawks team.” McCarron has not played since Aug. 21, 2021, when he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during an Atlanta Falcons’ NFL preseason game." Full XFL rosters, including Prince Emili for the San Antonio Brahmas: https://www.espn.com/xfl/story/_/id/35053464/xfl-draft-results-2023-full-rosters-eight-teams-vic-beasley-martavis-bryant-picks "The XFL says that 285 of its draft picks previously have been signed to an active NFL roster or a practice squad contract. Among those players: Vic Beasley, Martavis Bryant, Kalen Ballage, Cody Latimer and PJ Hall. There also were 69 players who played in the 2020 version of the XFL. The league will have a supplemental draft in January, and it plans to have 528 players -- 66 per team -- go to training camps ahead of the start of the season in February."

Charles Romes Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 He could not beat out peterman and the team used peterman as the veteran to give the rookie Allen time to develop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K D Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 These leagues are always so boring to watch because of bad QB play. If AJ McCaron is the best QB in the league then this is going to be bad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you're a quarterback at Alabama, you see that lovely lady there?” “She does go to Auburn but she also is Miss Alabama and that's A.J.

The way Brent Mussberger fawned all over her during a bowl game broadcast (wasn't it?) was an all time-classic. He was like "Oh my! Look at that woman! What a gorgeous woman! And his mom too!" It was borderline inappropriate THEN and NOW it would not have been tolerated, unfortunately. They would have forced Mussberger into making some type of public comment/apology making it clear that he respects women for who they are and he doesn't simply objectify them, or some such.

Tthis was his best/worst call ever. Never saw that, so thanks! I LOVED THAT! He's even working the sponsor into the call, what's not to love. I wouldn't describe the AJ's GF incident "cringy as F" but it was slightly awkward at the time; I remember watching it live and thinking "I can't believe he's dwelling on this for as long as he is." I love it b/c it came at a point in his career when he simply doesn't give a damn anymore, and he was openly flying the bird at his corporate masters, even with his career on the line. Have to respect that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard at the time that McCarron wasn't a process guy, was kind of a me first guy. No idea if any of that is true, but heard that's part of the reason the bills cut him 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I remember back in spring 2018 some posters expecting AJ to be the Bills long term answer at QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
