TOP PLAYERS

RJ YOUNG’S TAKE

Everybody sees Mike Riley’s Generals coming now, especially after producing USFL’s MVP KaVontae Turpin. Just weeks after finishing his season as a General in Canton, Ohio, Turpin turned up at the Dallas Cowboys training camp.

He won a spot on the Cowboys’ 53-man roster as a return specialist and was selected to the NFL’s All-Pro team by the players. In this, he is the poster child for success not just in the USFL but all spring football leagues.

Riley’s Generals will enter training camp as one of the favorites to contend for the USFL championship in Year 2 with the return of some vitally important players and budding stars.

Alongside quarterback Johnson, All-USFL running back and Offensive Player of the Year Victor and running back Williams round out an offensive unit that effectively ran the ball well all season in 2022.

With safety Luani back to lead the General defense, New Jersey are right to feel like they’re in position to hunt the franchise’s first title.
