The Defenders’ Reggie Barlow, the league’s coach of the year, said winning an XFL championship would be the biggest achievement of his career because he helped build the team from scratch.

 

“This, to be on a pro level and to have an opportunity to win it, it would be better than me having a chance to win the Super Bowl [with the 2002 Tampa Bay Buccaneers],” Barlow said. “… It would be the best thing to happen outside of my kids [being born].”

Defenders quarterback Jordan Ta’amu, who played for two colleges, had seven stints with five NFL teams and has played in the past two iterations of the XFL as well as the 2022 USFL reboot, said winning an XFL title would be the zenith of a young but winding football life.

 

“Winning the XFL championship would mean the world to me. I’ve been to championships before in high school — state championships — and lost every single one,” said Ta’amu, the XFL’s offensive player of the year. “… This means the world to me just because [I’m] a small kid from Hawaii getting this opportunity to bring a trophy home, not just only to D.C. but through everywhere I’ve been at. My journey’s been long. A lot of people grinded and supported me throughout this long journey.”
