The XFL is full of players trying to make their way in football. It may not be the NFL, but for most it beats working in the real world. Cody Brown of the Dallas Renegades picked off former Pittsburgh Steeler and current Houston Roughneck QB Landry Jones Sunday in the Texas Throwdown.
Not unusual for a DB to make an interception. However, this DB used to be a substitute teacher.
Throwing the ball near @hitman_brown is NOT a good idea

FOX sideline reporter Jenny Taft got to the DB and mentioned his former gig as a substitute teacher during the conversation.

The lesson for Landry Jones: Don’t pick on Cody Brown. Or anyone else in the Dallas secondary. Jones had an unfortunate hat trick in the first quarter, throwing three interceptions.
It is a pick party in Dallas
