Earlier today we reported on the first official trade in XFL History. Now that mini-camps have concluded, the teams aren’t wasting any time shaping their identities. Shortly after the BattleHawks/Renegades trade was announced, we have another trade coming out of Los Angeles and Tampa Bay.
🚨 TRADE ALERT 🚨

The Wildcats have acquired Arrion Springs from the Tamp Bay Vipers for Jalen Collins in return. Both players are corners, so it’s an even trade across the board. The teams are in preparation for training camp net month in Houston. I have a feeling we may be seeing a few more trade alerts between now and then.
Jalen Collins played college football at LSU and was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in the second round of the 2015 NFL Draft.
Arrion Springs was a three-year starter in the Ducks’ secondary, tallying 44 career pass breakups with two interceptions and three forced fumbles.
