A.J. McCarron signs up for a stint in the XFL after injuries deny him NFL fame
A.J. McCarron’s life in the NFL wasn’t very long, nor very illustrious. The former Alabama signal caller struggles with injuries for a long time and ultimately was left without a team. However, he seems to have found a new wave of enthusiasm, as he joins the newly revamped XFL, playing as the QB for the St. Louis Battlehawks.
The Battlehawks managed to pull off an incredible comeback against the San Antonio Brahmas in their opening fixture. Thanks in part to some brilliant throws by McCarron. Not to forget, his 22-yard throw helped the Battlehawks keep possession after scoring in the 4th quarter, thanks to the XFL’s rules. Overall, he seems to be flourishing in the atmosphere the XFL provides. Will he ever make a return to the NFL?
