The day after the Brahmas signed YouTube star and kicker Donald De La Haye, San Antonio continues to add more talent to their 2024 roster. UFL Communications announced that the Brahmas have signed five more players to their active roster, including quarterback Tom Flacco. The Brahmas added three additional players to their offense and two additional defensive players.
Quarterback Tom Flacco, the younger brother of Super Bowl-winning and current Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco, joins the Brahmas roster after finishing his college football career at Towson University. Flacco played for the Tigers during the 2018 and 2019 seasons, where he played in 24 games and completed 484 passes on 795 attempts, resulting in 6,082 passing yards and 50 touchdowns with only 17 interceptions. He has pursued a career in professional football, and he spent time with the Saskatchewan Roughriders in 2021; the Houston Roughnecks had signed the Ottawa Redblacks in 2021 and 2022 in the CFL, and him in December 2023 before the merger.
Wide Receiver KD Cannon joins the Brahmas after being selected by the Brahmas during the UFL player allocation process. During the 2023 XFL season, Cannon played for the Orlando Guardians and caught four passes for 161 yards and two touchdowns. After the 2023 season, Cannon joined the San Francisco 49ers as an undrafted free agent. Cannon played college football at Baylor from 2014 until 2016, and he has spent time with the Los Angeles Rams, Dallas Cowboys, Saskatchewan Roughriders of the CFL, and the Seattle Sea Dragons during the 2020 XFL season.
