The XFL held their Supplemental Draft on New Year’s Day, allowing the eight franchises to further add talent to their rosters ahead of the upcoming season. The Supplemental Draft allowed teams to draft players that were either passed over in the XFL Draft or were ineligible for selection in November.

Only one team made a selection in all 17 rounds of the Supplemental Draft. That team is the San Antonio Brahmas. Taking full advantage of the opportunity to deepen their roster, the Brahmas beefed up in preparation for the beginning of the season.

Paris local Jordan Williams will be joining the Brahmas. Williams played for the Wildcats and then went on to play four seasons at Baylor, being named one of the team’s captains at one point. He had three interceptions his senior season in what was a standout year.

Williams entered the 2022 NFL Draft but was not selected. He signed on with the Atlanta Falcons following the conclusion of the draft as a free agent.

The former Baylor standout didn’t stick with the Falcons, however. They released him, and he signed with the Detroit Lions shortly thereafter. Williams also spent time with the BC Lions of the CFL.

The San Antonio Brahmas will play the St. Louis Battlehawks on Sunday, Feb. 19 at the Alamodome. Kickoff for the game is scheduled for 2 p.m. on ABC.
