According to coach Moss

“The LA Wildcats are all about supporting each other and winning a Championship. We made a collective and joint decision that it was best to move on.”

In February of 2019, Oakman was found not guilty of sexual assault from a case filed back in 2016. That case along with other off the field issues kept NFL teams from drafting the former third-team All-American in 2016.

He was trying to restart his pro football career by being drafted by the Los Angeles Wildcats in the Phase 5 portion of the XFL draft.
