It’s that time of the year. With the UFL regular season complete, the league has announced the All-UFL Teams from the 2025 season. There was plenty of talent in the UFL this year, and these decisions were no doubt difficult to make.
Offense
QB Bryce Perkins, Panthers: Perkins needs no introduction. He took the UFL by storm this year, and despite missing a couple of games due to injury, was one of the key reasons that Michigan made a playoff push. Bryce threw for 1,342 yards and 9 touchdowns, with five scores on the ground as well.
RB Jashaun Corbin, Brahmas: Corbin ended up leading the UFL in rushing yards – finishing the season with 514. Jashaun emerged as one of the go-to playmakers in Payton Pardee’s offense, and helped make San Antonio relevant despite their losing record.
RB Jacob Saylors, Battlehawks: Jacob was tremendous this year for St. Louis, making an impact running the ball, and coming out of the backfield. Saylors rushed for 499 yards and five touchdowns on the year.
WR Deon Cain, Stallions: Cain was electric all throughout the UFL season, finishing with 514 yards and six touchdowns. He was a key piece for all five of Birmingham’s quarterbacks this year, as a downfield threat.
WR Chris Rowland, Defenders: Rowland continues to shine with the Defenders, doing a little bit of everything for this team. Chris had 522 receiving yards (2nd) alongside three receiving touchdowns.
WR Tyler Vaughns, Renegades: Vaughns’ tremendous second half of the year resulted in him getting some recognition on the All-UFL list. Tyler posted 475 yards and four touchdowns, making all sorts of highlight-reel worthy plays every single week.
TE Sal Cannella, Renegades: Not surprisingly, Sal Cannella joins the All-UFL team this year after leading all TE’s with 474 yards. Sal was targeted a whopping 57 times – almost double that of the next TE.
TE Gunnar Oakes, Panthers: Oakes quietly had an impressive season with Michigan. Outside of being one of the better blockers in the league, Gunnar posted 151 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
C Mike Panasiuk, Battlehawks: Panasiuk helped pave the way for Jacob Saylors and Max Duggan, earning his third straight All-UFL/XFL selection. He’s been the best center in the scene for a couple of years, and not surprisingly earns another award.
OG Steven Gonzalez, Battlehawks: The entire Battlehawks O-Line has been playing great football this season, and Gonzalez being named All-UFL is well deserved. He didn’t allow a sack all year, with an outstanding 80.7 Pass Blocking Grade via PFF.
OG Cohl Cabral, Panthers: Cohl Cabral was a part of a Panthers O-Line that was one of the best units in the league. Cohl was outstanding in the run game for Michigan, with an 81.4 Run Blocking Grade via PFF.
OT Yasir Durant, Defenders: The Defenders saw plenty of improvements to their offensive line, and Yasir Durant was a big part of that success. His grades were some of the highest in the UFL this year, allowing just one sack on 654 snaps played.
OT Ryan Nelson, Panthers: Ryan Nelson is another Panther who was excellent during the 2025 season. He moved to tackle after playing both tackle/guard last year, and impressed – with only one sack allowed on 551 snaps.
Defense
DT Joe Wallace, Defenders: Joe Wallace was a force to be reckoned with on the interior all season long. In DC, he led all DT’s with 28 QB pressures, with five sacks to his name on the season.
DT Perrion Winfrey, Stallions: Perrion, the former New York Jet, was solid for Birmingham this year as he had 17 QB pressures, a sack, and 25 tackles.
EDGE Derick Roberson, Defenders: Roberson was a part of a DC defensive line that did their job all season long. He led the UFL in total pressures with 39, alongside five sacks – and 19 tackles.
EDGE Pita Taumoepenu, Battlehawks: Pita, the former XFL DPOY, put himself in the conversation for UFL defensive player of the year, leading the league with eight sacks, to go along with 37 pressures and 19 tackles.
LB Tavante Beckett, Brahmas: Beckett was 2nd in the UFL in tackles this season (77), just behind his counterpart in Jordan Williams. He added five TFL’s and a sack to his resume on the year, as one of the few defensive pieces in San Antonio who was consistent all year long.
LB Willie Harvey, Battlehawks: It’s no surprise to see Willie back on this list, after earning the same honors a year ago. Harvey posted 58 tackles, three TFL’s, and a pick six in another dominant year for St. Louis as they featured the best record in the UFL, at 8-2.
LB Anthony Hines III, Defenders: Hines continues to get better with each season, with 53 tackles, five TFL’s, and three sacks this year in just eight games. When Hines isn’t on the field, DC’s defense sees legitimate downticks in production.
CB Deandre Baker, Defenders: Baker earns All-UFL honors for a second straight year, with 22 tackles, two interceptions, and six PBU’s. His pick in week eight sent DC to the playoffs, topping Arlington.
CB Ajene Harris, Renegades: Harris had another productive year, and earned All-UFL/XFL honors for the third straight season. Ajene had 42 tackles, four PBU’s, and three picks – one of which was returned for a touchdown.
CB Kedrick Whitehead, Panthers: Whitehead showed growth this season for Michigan, with 43 tackles and four PBU’s to his name. He’s been used in a plethora of ways for Michigan’s defense, answering the call all year with movement due to injuries.
S Leon O’Neal Jr., Roughnecks: O’Neal burst onto the UFL scene this season, and proved to be one of the top playmakers in the game. Leon racked up 40 tackles, an interception, and two PBU’s. His pick six in week three lifted Houston to their first win of the year.
S Arnold Tarpley III, Panthers: Tarpley made his return to spring ball, starting all ten games for Michigan this year with 50 tackles, two interceptions, and three PBU’s to his name. Arnold had earned All-USFL honors back in 2023 with the Maulers.
Special Teams
K Rodrigo Blankenship, Battlehawks: To absolutely no one’s surprise, “Hot Rod” takes the All-UFL kicker award this year following his productive season in St. Louis. Blankenship went 21-22 on field goals, including a 56 yard long. His only miss was from 58 yards out.
P Brad Wing, Brahmas: Brad Wing continues to shine in the spring scene, dominating the punting stats once again. He led all punters in punts of 50+ yards.
LS Alexander Matheson, Battlehawks: Matheson was a key piece on special teams for Blankenship and Sterling Hofricther, and with Rodrigo earning All-UFL honors, Matheson follows suit.
Returner Chris Rowland, Defenders: Rowland is “Mr. Do It All” for DC, with 424 kick return yards, and 114 punt return yards. He led the entire UFL in All-Purpose yards this season.
Seven of the eight teams in the UFL saw recognition on All-UFL lists. The only franchise without a nominee was the Memphis Showboats.
