Well, it’s official: Bruno Reagan, a fan-favorite from the XFL, has signed his USFL contract to play with the league during their 2022 season. After teasing the idea for weeks, the former XFL offensive lineman has made the decision to join the draft pool.
Hello everyone. Signed my USFL contract today after much back and forth. I quite simply think I can never let it go. I just love it too much. Looking forward to helping a team win a championship and creating a fun football at the highest level we can. See you guys at Birmingham!

Reagan is much more than just an XFL alumni at this point. Over the past couple of months, he has been involved in sharing USFL news/tidbits on his radio show called “The Afternoon Stretch”. Interestingly enough, Reagan has altered his views on the league, as he previously was not planning on playing.
Not at all sold on the USFL, can’t put my finger on it but hope it’s cool. Hope the XFL still finds that magic

However, since he was an athlete that the league was reaching out to, Reagan was able to provide us with inside information that gave insight into how the league was operating.
Also I hadn’t said anything on it, but the USFL compensation is a lot better than I thought it was going to be. Good for the league.

Over time, his attitude toward the USFL shifted, and now he plans on playing in the league in a couple of months.

We’re excited to see Bruno back out on the gridiron, and wish him all the best in the USFL in 2022! It should be an exciting season for the new league, and we look forward to watching the debut in April.
