Last week we saw the XFL send out it’s first batch of invites to the draft. Today we’re hearing of the first official signing from the league; and it’s a big one. Landry Jones has officially signed with the XFL. I love it!

Jones participated at the first XFL Summer Showcase in Dallas; conicidently where his former coach is current head coach and general manager. I’m sure Stoops would love to coach Landry again, we’ll just have to wait and see if he’s able to pick him up in the XFL Draft.

As this announcement came out Oliver Luck joined the Colin Cowherd show. During the show he said that the league will sign 7 more quarterbacks over the next few weeks. A while back we had reported that the league was looking at the possibility of assigning tier 1 quarterbacks. It seems like they may be heading that direction as the rest of the invites that have gone out are invites only, and not a contract.
