While Washington commanders are preparing to try to make a Super Bowl race this season, other former members of the organization are also busy achieving their goals.
Some are still in the NFL, of course, but some former commanders have pivoted and currently take advantage of the occasion that the United Football League (UFL) also provides marginal members of the professional lists.
Let us take, for example, the Rachad Wildgoose corner half, which spent the 2022 NFL season with Washington, appearing in 15 games, finally landing with the title champion of the UFL Birmingham Stallions. He, the other former commanders of the League, such as offensive line players Alex Akingbulu (Arlington Renegades) and Mason Brooks (DC defenders), and all the other UFL players will benefit from a historic collective agreement (CBA) who died on Friday.
“The players of the United Football League (UFL) ratified a two -year collective agreement (CBA) for the seasons of 2025 and 2026,” said the Association of UFL players (UFPA) in a press release announcing the news. “The ABC increases the annual salary of active players from $ 55,000 to $ 62,005 in 2025, with a new increase to $ 64,000 in 2026. In addition, players will now be eligible for health care throughout the year in the form of seven months of active coverage and a five -month CBA subsidy. The CBA is previously at the end of the season of the four -month season. Health of the four -month season.
This is excellent news for players who do not do as much as their NFL counterparts, but put the same physical risk in play in the hope of reaching their own football glory, and perhaps doing enough to reach or return to the highest level.
Of course, it is also a big step for the UFL itself which certainly has aspirations to become a league which can house the whole career of the best talents in the world of football, not that it alone will succeed.
“UFL players are not millionaires. Like many Americans, it is simply fierce workers looking for a fair salary and health of an employer who can afford,” said Harry Marino, president of Sports Solidarity and the main negotiator of the ABC in the press release. “Our sports team Solidarity was honored to fight for and alongside these players throughout this negotiation. We are satisfied to have finally concluded a fair agreement that will benefit all parties.”
The press release included all improvements in the 2025/2026 UFL season, listed here:
