Remember Temple QB Phillip Walker?

He went undrafted in 2017, then wound up on the Colts’ practice squad. Now he’s been assigned to the Houston Roughnecks ahead of the XFL’s 2020 relaunch.

Here are your quarterbacks:

Two former Eagles on that list in Luis Perez and Matt McGloin. Landry Jones goes to Dallas and Cardale Jones is a DC Defender.

The XFL basically had their eight teams give them a priority list of quarterbacks they wanted. The league then negotiated with available players, and that’s how the eight guys ended up on their respective squads. Today and tomorrow, the rosters will be filled out via a draft that includes the following Temple Owls:

  • Jahad Thomas
  • Adonis Jennings
  • Brandon Shippen
  • Colin Thompson
  • Evan Rodriguez
  • Cole Boozer
  • Leon Johnson
  • Jaelin Robinson
  • Praise Martin-Oguike
  • Artrel Foster-Bell
  • Delvon Randall

Former Penn QB Alek Torgersen is also on the list along with six Penn State guys and Delaware’s Vinny Papale, son of Vince.

I’ll watch Walker play. He spent four seasons at Temple, throwing for 74 touchdowns and helping the Owls to a 7-0 start in 2015, which brought College Gameday to Philly. He left the school as the all-time leader in wins, passing yards, passing TDs, completions, attempts, total yards, and total TDs.
