Plenty of players in the UFL have spent some time in the NFL and most of them would like to get back in the league, but few of them squandered the kind of opportunity that cornerback Damon Arnette did.
Arnette was a Raiders first-round pick in 2020 and he was released in November 2021 when video of him making threats while carrying firearms surfaced. He signed with the Chiefs in January 2022, but was released a little more than a week later after being arrested for charges that included assault with a deadly weapon.
Further legal issues cropped up over the last couple of years and Arnette was out of football until he signed with the UFL’s Houston Roughnecks ahead of their 2025 season.
