The 33-year-old Wing and his San Antonio Brahmas opened up their 2024 UFL season with a home contest against the DC Defenders. Sunday marks the final day for Week 1 action of the UFL, a merger of the XFL and United States Football League.
With 14 seconds remaining in the first half of Sunday’s contest, San Antonio lined up for a 58-yard field goal attempt. Wing then got out of the field goal formation and signaled for a motion, leaving the DC defense visibly baffled.
Wing then took the snap and had all day to throw before finally spotting a wide-open Alex Mollette downfield. The former NFL offensive lineman caught the pass and just barely broke the plane for a highlight reel touchdown:
Wing was the Steelers ‘punter during the 2014 season, averaging 43.7 yards per punt in his rookie year. The LSU product spent the next three years with the Giants, averaging a career-best 46.2 yards per punt.
In 2019, Wing joined the Memphis Express of the now-defunct AAF (Alliance of American Football). He resumed his football career by playing for San Antonio during the 2023 XFL season, before returning to the Steelers for a brief two-game stint following an injury to Pressley Harvin.
Next Week’s UFL Action
Week 2 of the 2024 UFL season will again feature two games apiece on Saturday and Sunday. The first contest will see San Antonio visit Memphis (12:00 p.m. EST), with the Arlington Renegades visiting the St. Louis Battlehawks (8:00 p.m. EST) in the second game.
The Birmingham Stallions will visit the Michigan Panthers at 12:00 p.m. EST) in the first game on Sunday. Houston and DC will wrap up Week 2 with a showdown in Washington at 4:00 p.m. EST).
