Houston Roughnecks WR Nick Holley

Holley was listed at running back but utilized as the slot receiver for the Houston Roughnecks. While he hasn’t been as productive as his teammate Phillips, he still managed to have a really good season. He recorded 21 catches for 267 yards and two touchdowns. He also was the second-best in the XFL in passer rating when targeted according to PFF.

What Holley was able to show most with the XFL is that he can stay healthy. He’s had a myriad of injuries throughout his career including three torn ACLs and a broken back. This time around he didn’t suffer any injuries and was able to showcase his skill as a receiving threat.
