Ed Reynolds (Atlanta Legends)

Add Ed Reynolds to the roster of a proud city who just hosted what might be the most boring Super Bowl in the history of our favorite game. Reynolds is a safety who’s totaled 64 tackles, a sack, and an interception over the course of his young career.

That career gets a new start with the Alliance.

Greg Ward Jr. (San Antonio Commanders)

Try to understand something here. Greg Ward Jr. can play. There just happened to be a few guys on the Eagles’ roster who were just better at the wide receiver position. For that reason, Ward landed on Philly’s practice squad in both 2017 and 2018.

Hey, he’s got a Super Bowl ring though, and now, he gets to bring the knowledge of what it takes to win a championship to the city of San Antonio.

Yes, we said San Antonio.
