MATT JONES: Matt Jones is former NFL running back who will try to take the XFL by storm. He had a solid rookie season with the Washington Redskins in 2015 but could never replicate the season. He had been with the Indianapolis Colts and Philadelphia Eagles before jumping to the XFL.
CHRISTINE MICHAEL: Christine Michael is another former NFL running back who found himself on the BattleHawks. Michael was a Super Bowl champion and had 1,089 rushing yards among five teams. He had his most successful stints with the Seattle Seahawks. But he failed to stick with an NFL team.
