The UFL transaction wire was active on April 29, 2025, with several notable player movements between teams. Here’s a breakdown of the recent personnel changes:
Trade Transactions
- Arlington acquires DE Ikenna Enechukwu (#91) from San Antonio (Rice University)
- San Antonio receives ILB Storey Jackson (#20) from Arlington (Liberty University)
Waiver System Transactions
- Arlington terminated DT DaVonte Lambert (#6, Auburn)
- San Antonio terminated ILB Tariq Carpenter (#29, Georgia Tech)
Signing Transactions
- Memphis signed RB Wes Hills (Slippery Rock)
- Hills was simultaneously transferred to Memphis’ inactive roster
These moves represent typical mid-season adjustments as teams look to strengthen their rosters. The Arlington-San Antonio trade stands out as both teams address specific defensive needs. Arlington bolsters their defensive line with Enechukwu while San Antonio adds linebacker depth with Jackson.
Memphis adds a proven spring league rusher in Hills, who brings production and experience to their backfield. The move to the inactive roster suggests they may be bringing him along slowly or waiting for him to fully recover from his previous injury with Michigan.
Hills dominated the 2023 USFL season with the New Orleans Breakers, leading the league in rushing with 679 yards and 10 touchdowns while earning All-USFL team honors . His USFL career featured a record-breaking 191-yard game in Week 3 of the 2023 season, establishing him as an elite spring football running back. Glad to see him return to the UFL.
