Nick Holley does a Billy ‘White Shoes’ Johnson dance after score

P.J. Walker hooked up with Nick Holley for a touchdown in the first half of the Roughnecks’ game with the Vipers.

The Houston Roughnecks found themselves in an unfamiliar position Saturday … trailing.

The Tampa Bay Vipers came into the game 1-3 but jumped to a 14-0 lead. Then, P.J. Walker decided to rev up the Roughnecks, finding Nick Holley for a 50-yard strike on third-and-one.

Holley got a big block from Cam Phillips.

Holley is one of the better stories in the XFL. He has come back from three torn ACLs and a broken back to continue to pursue his dream of playing football.

During the first iteration of the XFL, New York’s franchise played at Giants Stadium. Since then, MetLife Stadium was erected in place of that venue, and now the New York Guardians find it as their home in the new XFL. New York will host the Tampa Bay Vipers in the first week of the 2020 XFL season, with both teams looking to establish an identity in the early stage of the season.

Tampa Bay is coached by former NFL head coach Marc Trestman, who built his reputation as an offensive mind in the Canadian Football League before being hired to lead the Chicago Bears. The Vipers will hope that Trestman’s offensive coaching prowess will lead to a strong season from quarterback Aaron Murray, who is best known for his time as the signal caller for the Georgia Bulldogs. Murray has spent time in NFL huddles as well and hopes to parlay that experience into success in the XFL.

The New York Guardians are also led by an offensive mind, as former New York Giants offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride is the head man for the team that plays in the same stadium as the Giants. The Guardians will have former Penn State and Oakland Raiders quarterback Matt McGloin as their starter, but they also have Luis Perez in their quarterback room. Perez was one of the breakout stars of the Alliance of American Football, and this team could be well equipped to take advantage of the new multiple forward pass rule that the XFL will put into play.
