Evening AAF game thread: Arizona Hotshots vs. Memphis Express
There’s one more AAF game on television tonight as the Arizona Hotshots will take on the Memphis Express at 5 p.m. on NFL Network. The Hotshots have former Oklahoma and Texas A&M quarterback Trevor Knight and a host of former Arizona and ASU collegians on their roster, including former Sun Devils DT Will Sutton and former Wildcats LB Scooby Wright, both of whom had a cup of coffee in the NFL after outstanding college careers. Memphis has Zach Mettenberger and former Raider Christian Hackenberg on their team and seems an ideal place for Paxton Lynch to swindle money from someday. At...

One time Raiders Christian Hackenberg, Trent Richardson have lackluster AAF debuts
NFL fans seem to already be experiencing football withdrawal as today marks the first Sunday without professional football since September. In response, nearly three million people tuned into the brand new league, the Alliance of American Football, on Saturday. On Sunday, two former Oakland Raiders in Trent Richardson and Christian Hackenberg went head-to-head in the AAF’s second day of football. Hackenberg’s debut for the Memphis Express was abysmal. He put up a horrible stat line in going 10/23 for 87 yards and one interception in addition to being sacked twice in a 26-0 loss to the...
