Ex-Cowboys quarterback praised as the ''Patrick Mahomes of the XFL'' after a remarkable debut.
The XFL has made a grand comeback, this time under new management. The games kicked off on Saturday, with the Vegas Vipers and Arlington Renegades playing the first match of the new season as the league debuted for the third time.
On Sunday, the Seattle Sea Dragons faced off against the DC Defenders in another thrilling game. Ben DiNucci, a former quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, led an offense for the Sea Dragons that was touted to be the best in the XFL. However, they suffered a loss in their season opener and will need to prove themselves in the upcoming games. DiNucci, nonetheless, made quite an impression and drew comparisons to Patrick Mahomes.
The signal-caller completed 35 of 54 passes for 282 yards, with two interceptions and a touchdown. That touchdown pass was every bit as spectacular as those flicks we've seen from Mahomes. Check it out below:
The pass was caught by Josh Gordon, the former Cleveland Browns star who was suspended by the NFL on five occasions for violating the league's substance abuse policy. In his XFL debut, he gained 74 yards, as well as that touchdown.
