Year 1 of the UFL was a success, as 60% of players were called to the NFL for workouts and 21 stars landed on NFL rosters.
The UFL is already reaping the fruits of its labor after a successful Year 1 in the books. Twenty-one players who were in the UFL last season are now on NFL rosters, the UFL announced in a press release this week. Additionally, more than 250 of last season's 400 UFL players were called to the NFL for workouts, with 78 individuals signing contracts to attend 30 NFL team training camps.
'This would provide our players the competitive platform needed to be seen by NFL teams. The number of workouts and signings we saw during NFL training camps speaks to the product we put on the field and the opportunity we created for our players as a league. 'This is what spring football represents, providing a non-traditional path to help players make it to football's grandest stage.
