Editing XFL (2001) (section)

==Notable players==
Notable players included league [[Most Valuable Player|MVP]] and Los Angeles quarterback [[Tommy Maddox]], who signed with the NFL's [[Pittsburgh Steelers]] after the XFL folded (Maddox later became the starting quarterback for the Steelers in 2002 and led them to that year's playoffs, as well as continuing to start for them into 2004). Los Angeles used the first pick in the [[2001 XFL Draft|XFL draft]] to select a former [[National Football League|NFL]] quarterback, Scott Milanovich. Milanovich lost the starting quarterback job to Maddox, who was placed on the Xtreme as one of a handful of players put on each team due to geographic distance between the player's college and the team's hometown. Another of the better-known players was Las Vegas [[running back]] [[Rod Smart]], who first gained popularity because the name on the back of his jersey read "[[Rod Smart#"He Hate Me"|He Hate Me]]."{{sfn|Forrest|2002|p=89}} Smart, who was only picked 357th in the draft, later went on to play for the [[Philadelphia Eagles]], [[Carolina Panthers]], [[Oakland Raiders]] and the [[Edmonton Eskimos]] of the CFL. His Panther teammate [[Jake Delhomme]] named his newborn horse "She Hate Me" as a reference to him.<ref name="Fans love 'He Hate Me'">{{Cite web |url=http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=203873 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070513161851/http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=203873 |url-status=dead |title=JS Online: Fans love 'He Hate Me'<!-- Bot generated title --> |archive-date=May 13, 2007}}</ref> Smart played in [[Super Bowl XXXVIII]], becoming one of seven XFL players to play in a Super Bowl. Receiver [[Yo Murphy]] also achieved this as a member of the [[Los Angeles Rams|St. Louis Rams]] in [[Super Bowl XXXVI]], along with winning the 95th [[Grey Cup]] with the [[Saskatchewan Roughriders]] in 2007.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.yomurphy.com/ |title=Pro Experience |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060619052630/http://www.yomurphy.com/facts.htm |archive-date=June 19, 2006 |url-status=dead |website=www.yomurphy.com}}</ref> Tommy Maddox played for a Super Bowl team (the [[Pittsburgh Steelers]]) in [[Super Bowl XL]] in [[Detroit]], (although Maddox, by then a third-string quarterback, did not play in the game, which turned out to be his last appearance in uniform before retiring). Lastly, Las Vegas Outlaws DB [[Kelly Herndon]] played in [[Super Bowl XL]] with the [[Seattle Seahawks]] in 2005, where he is remembered for intercepting a pass and returning it a then-record 76 yards. Although he did not play for an NFL team after the XFL's lone season, former Las Vegas Outlaw offensive guard [[Isaac Davis (American football)|Isaac Davis]] also had a notable NFL career, playing in 58 games over a six-year career. Davis started for the [[San Diego Chargers]] in [[Super Bowl XXIX]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.nfl.com/players/isaacdavis/gamelogs?id=DAV484459&season=1994 |title=Isaac Davis: Game Logs at NFL.com |website=www.nfl.com}}</ref> [[John Avery (American football)|John Avery]] went on to play for both the [[Edmonton Eskimos]] and the [[Toronto Argonauts]] where he was an All Star selection in 2002 and won a [[Grey Cup]] in 2004.

The last active player to have played in the XFL is Canadian placekicker [[Paul McCallum (Canadian football)|Paul McCallum]], who last played for the [[BC Lions]] in the [[2016 CFL season]].
