Brahmas
By Jorden Hampton March 23, 2023
The XFL gives former NFL players second chances. Quarterback Kurt Benkert is taking
advantage of the XFL. Kurt Benkert signed with the San Antonio Brahmas and confirmed the
news on Twitter.
The Brahmas need a quarterback because Reid Sinnett injured his right foot against the Arlington
Renegades. Sinnett took over for Jack Coan who struggled to help the Brahma's offense.
Benkert played in one NFL game and recorded a negative rushing yard. Outside of the negative
rushing yard, Benkert doesn't have any passing stats in the NFL.
Benkert went undrafted in 2018. Benkert played college football for East Carolina and Virginia.
Benkert was a journeyman in the NFL, spending time with the Atlanta Falcons, Green Bay
Packers, and San Francisco 49ers. Benkert was primarily a backup and never started an NFL
regular season game. Benkert has an opportunity to show the world he is a capable quarterback..
San Antonio takes on the Arlington Renegades on Sunday, March 26. Brahma's fans shall see if
Benkert starts.
