The newly reimagined XFL kicked off its season-opener last weekend and between its interesting rules and notable NFL names, it didn't disappoint with competitive matchups and impact plays.
Week 1 featured an improbable comeback from the St. Louis BattleHawks, led by quarterback AJ McCarron. McCarron threw two touchdown passes and converted an onside fourth-and-15th pass from their own 25-yard line instead of the typical onside kick to keep possession. Which was key in helping the BattleHawks overcome a 12-point deficit with 1:40 left in the fourth quarter and propel them to a 18-15 win over the San Antonio Brahmas.
