UFL To NFL Rundown: 2025 Week Thirteen Action

Week thirteen in the NFL brought us quite a bit of UFL alumni action. We had a few athletes play on Thanksgiving, while plenty more made their presence known on Sunday.

Let’s take a look at what all went down.

Dallas Cowboys

WR KaVontae Turpin, Generals
DT Perrion Winfrey, Stallions
K Brandon Aubrey, Stallions

KaVontae Turpin had a very busy, and productive, day in Dallas’ win over Kansas City. He rushed three times for 33 yards, caught two passes for 28 yards, and had five kickoff returns for 118 yards. This week he did not fumble, but did recover one – preventing a turnover.

Brandon Aubrey was on the money once again, to no one’s surprise. He was 3-for-3 on field goal attempts with a long of 49 yards, alongside two XP’s.

Denver Broncos

DE Dondrea Tillman, Stallions
LS Mitchell Fraboni, Maulers

Dondrea Tillman stuffed the stat sheets in the one point win over Washington. He racked up four tackles, a sack, a TFL, and two QB hits. He’s emerged the last several weeks as a key piece to their pass rush rotation, after a slow start to the season.

Detroit Lions

RB Jacob Saylors, Battlehawks
K Jate Bates, Panthers

It was a quiet day for UFL’ers in Detroit. Jake Bates made three XP’s, and knocked through a 31 yard field goal. Jacob Saylors didn’t see any action on kickoffs, with Tom Kennedy back in the lineup – taking over those duties entirely.

Minnesota Vikings

DT Jalen Redmond, Renegades

Up front, Jalen Redmond continues to make a difference in Minnesota. In the blowout loss to Seattle, Jalen totaled three tackles, alongside a key fumble recovery that gave the Vikings a bit of life when they needed it.

Cleveland Browns

K Andre Szmyt, Battlehawks
LS Rex Sunahara, Brahmas

We didn’t get much out of Cleveland’s specialists, either. Cleveland opted to go for the two point attempt on their lone touchdown of the afternoon, meaning Szmyt never even got to kick an XP, let alone a field goal.

Other UFL to NFL Performances

Defenders P Daniel Whelan, Packers: Daniel Whelan had a massive day for Green Bay on Thanksgiving. He only punted twice, but averaged 67 yards per punt – with a long of 72 yards.

Battlehawks DT LaCale London, Falcons: LaCale London put together another decent performance, notching two tackles up front for Atlanta.

Stars DT LaBryan Ray, Panthers: Ray has worked his way back into being more of a rotational piece in Carolina. He had one tackle in their win over the Rams.

Stallions K Harrison Mevis, Rams: Once again, Harrison Mevis did not get to attempt any field goals. He connected on all four XP’s for Los Angeles, though, remaining perfect on the season.
