Former Troy University quarterback Brandon Silvers is the starting quarterback for the Houston Roughnecks of the XFL and has guided his team to a 4-0 start to the season.

In Houston’s Week 4 win over the Orlando Guardians on March 11, Silvers completed 24-of-30 passes for 239 yards and three touchdowns leading the Roughnecks to a 44-16 win.

Silvers has completed 88-of-135 passes for 962 yards, 10 touchdowns and three interceptions so far this season. His yardage ranks second in the XFL and touchdowns rank first.
