Former Clemson players taken in the XFL draft

The XFL will open their second reincarnation beginning in February of 2020. There are eight teams, all owned by the league.

The head coaches were hired during the past months, team names and colors were finally announced, stadium contracts were signed, season tickets are offered for sale, and all that was left to do was to form rosters.

On October 15 and 16, the XFL held its first-ever draft – and now the league has players.

The teams and respective head coaches are as follows: Dallas Renegades/Bob Stoops, (Washington) DC Defenders/Pep Hamilton, Houston Roughnecks/June Jones, Los Angeles Wildcats/Winston Moss, New York Guardians/Kevin Gilbride, St.
