After playing for four different teams in six seasons, including two stops with the Seattle Seahawks, the running back will get another shot at a pro football career with the XFL.

Michael was taken with the 62nd pick in the 2013 NFL draft by the Seattle Seahawks. He played in just 14 games for Seattle from 2013 to 2014. Christine was backup to Marshawn Lynch and Robert Turbin.

He was later traded to Dallas and then bounced between the Redskins and Colts. He played in just one game for the Colts in the 2018 season.

He is the first of many former NFL names we will be hearing about in the coming weeks. Could former Browns Quarterback Johnny Manziel be on this list? Stay tuned to XFL News Hub for all the player details and full coverage of all eight Summer Showcase events.
