QB Drew Lock
Zehlendorf Zecken
2030 MVP
2030 ALLPRO
2030 NXC Champion
2031 & 2034 XFL Champion
17 seasons
Zehlendorf (9)
Cincinnati (5)
Michigan (2)
Houston (1)

He was drafted with the 1st pick of the 2nd round in the 2027 draft by the Chicago Avengers which became the Zehlendorf Zecken in 2029. The francise move would start a 5 year run from 2030-2034 where Lock & the Zecken would win double digit games, make the postseason, win 4 NXC Conference Championships & 2 XFL Championships. Lock was the starting QB for the much maligned 2034 NXC Championship game where Zehlendorf broke the punt block rule on way to a 63-56 win over the Saint Paul Punishers. The owner of Zehlendorf was removed from the league amidst the cheating scandal and the much criticized Zehlendorf went on to win XFL XVII behind a resilient Drew Lock at quarterback. Lock would play one more season with Zehlendorf after rejecting multiple offers to stay and in 2036, he signed a 5 year/105 million dollar free agent contract with Cincinnati. He played 3 seasons with Cincinnati and while the team would make the postseason in all 3 seasons, Lock's stats would diminish over that span and he would eventually be benched midway through the 2038 season and subsequently released prior to the 2039 season. He would bounce around from Michigan, back to Cincinnati and finally Houston before hanging up his cleets after the 2043 season. Lock would finish his career 9th Alltime in passing yards, 4th Alltime in passing TDs and 6th Alltime in QBR. In the postseason, he would finish 6th Alltime in passing yards, 3rd Alltime in passing TDs and 3rd Alltime in QBR. He becomes the 11th QB elected into the Hall of Fame and he did so unanimously on his 1st ballot. He joins teammate WR Courtney Sutton as the 2nd player from Zehlendorf enshrined as the 2 will forever to considered one of the best QB/WR duos in XFL history. Drew Lock had a Hall of Fame career but many are left to wonder what could have been if the "scandal" never happened.

Vancouver (8)
Dakota (3)
Carolina (2)

He was drafted with the 9th pick of the 1st round in the 2031 draft by Vancouver out of Utah. After he was selected, this was said "Vancouver takes this big running back out of Utah. He has near elite speed and quickness to go along with his 227 pound frame. If he can succeed in training camp, he could eventually become a bell cow back with his size allowing him to absorb the wear and tear. Narvaez would become one of the greatest WRs in XFL history, playing 8 seasons with Vancouver before being traded to Dakota in 2039 where he would play 3 seasons before finishing his career with 2 seasons in Carolina. During the 2036 season, he recorded three top 10 receiving yard games in XFL history (408 yards/3rd), (405 yards/4th) & (363 yards/6th). He finished with 136 receptions (3rd Alltime), 3,888 yards receiving (1st Alltime) & 28 TD receptions in 2036 with Vancouver where he won the league MVP.

In 2035, he signed a 6 year/55 million dollar contract with Dakota where he played for the next 8 seasons. He first 3 seasons with Dakota, he seemed like a bust, totalling just 9 sacks and it seemed like he had reach the end of his career.

CB Harold Pinto
Brooklyn Hitmen
2039 ALLPRO
2033 NXC Conference Champ
14 seasons
Brooklyn (10)
Seattle (4)

He was drafted with the 4th overall pick of the 2029 draft by Seattle out of Colorodo. Immediately after being selected, this was what the experts said: "With the 4th pick, Seattle lands perhaps the best all around corner in the draft. His elite speed and potential elite level cover skills make him a possible true lock down CB." He spent parts of 4 seasons with Seattle before being traded to Brooklyn prior to week 3 of the 2032 season. Pinto is the very definition of a cover corner but he wasn't known for his hands as far as interceptions. No player has covered more passes (1,118) or had more knockdowns (329) then Pinto. He was elected on his 3rd ballot and becomes the 10th CB enshrined. He is the 4th Brooklyn player elected into the HOF.
