On the defensive side, having Hall of Fame defensive back Rod Woodson as head coach doesn't hurt.MORE:The Renegades, led by longtime Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops, don't have as many recognizable names. Former NFL preseason darling Kyle Sloter could be  Matthew Tkachuk Jersey Arlington's quarterback, and they will be relying on Stoops' coaching acumen to overcome what could be a talent disadvantage.Former Ravens safety Will Hill and former Raiders punter Marquette King are among the notable names for the Renegades.Guardians vs. RoughnecksKickoff: 8:30 p.m. ETTV channel: ESPN, FXLive stream:,The Guardians have one of the most interesting quarterback situations in the league with 2016 Broncos first-round pick Paxton Lynch and former Florida State standout Deondre Francois.

Cam Talbot Women Jersey  There are NFL roots up and down the roster as well as on the coaching staff.The Defenders may not be the XFL's best team, but they may have one of the most exciting quarterback rooms in the league.D'Eriq King and Eric Dungey both stood out in the ACC as dual threats and can add life to any offense, while Jordan Ta'amu has played well in spring football leagues before and has spent some time behind Patrick Mahomes on the Chiefs' depth chart. Travis Hamonic Kids Jersey  We'll see if the Defenders can overtake the Commanders as D.C.'s most functional football team.
