After the loss of Sal Cannella to the NFL, the Dallas Renegades continue to rebuild the tight end room as another new face joins the room.
The UFL Communication Department's X page announced the latest moves being made around the league with the Renegades signing tight end Baylor Cupp to the team. Cupp was previously in the NFL with the Baltimore Ravens last training camp and played for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2024 where he played 10 snaps in a game for them with just one target.
Before going undrafted in the 2024 NFL Draft, Cupp was a key contributor on the Texas Tech Red Raiders in 2022 and 2023 as he combined for 23 receptions for 246 yards and four touchdowns in those years. He also attended Texas A&M before transferring to Texas Tech.
Renegades add Baylor Cupp to the training camp roster
Cupp's arrival at Dallas's training camp will certainly catch some attention with an already deep tight end room for the Renegades. The team also has Seth Green, former Dallas Cowboy Peyton Hendershot, and Curtis Hodges. Green was seen in practice last week taking more of the first team reps as him and Renegades quarterback Luis Perez have built strong chemistry together from last year and working out in the offseason together. Hodges also spent time with the Renegades last year and Hendershot has plenty of NFL experience to keep him in the running to make the roster.
It's going to be a tough uphill battle for Cupp to make the final roster since he is coming in a week after training camp begins. If there is a key injury that occurs on the Renegades at tight end, that might open the door for him to make the roster, but until then, he will have to fight to stay on the roster.
Dallas seems to have upgraded the tight end room with Cupp being added, which is good news as the team nears the halfway point of training camp. This already talented roster just got better with Cupp's arrival.
