Multiple Former NFL WRs Stand Out in United Football League Season

Several wide receivers are making notable impacts in the United Football League (UFL) this season. Keke Chism of the Houston Roughnecks has emerged as a key player, leading his team with four touchdowns and ranking tied for third in the league, demonstrating significant growth since his college days at Missouri. Deon Cain of the Birmingham Stallions has also drawn attention, ranking third in receiving yards and second in touchdown catches, with a background that includes time with the Philadelphia Eagles and various NFL teams. Meanwhile, Cornell Powell is experiencing a breakout season with the D.C. Defenders, ranking second in the UFL in receiving touchdowns, after a slow start in both college and his NFL career with the Kansas City Chiefs. Powell's progression in the UFL echoes his late bloom at Clemson, where he became a standout as a fifth-year senior. These players highlight the UFL as a platform for talents who have yet to fully establish themselves in the NFL to showcase their abilities and potentially revive their professional careers.
