The Orlando Guardians ran a tremendously successful fake punt during the second quarter against the St. Louis Battlehawks during Saturday’s XFL action. Despite being fairly deep in their own territory, the Guardians fearlessly opted to go for the trick play, having converted one last week against the Brahmas.
It was a smashing success for Orlando, as Brown connected with tight end Jordan Thomas for a stunning 84-yard score.
Despite gaining a 12–9 lead from the big touchdown in the second quarter, the Guardians found themselves trailing late, 53–28. With their backs against the wall, they once again turned to Brown for another go at a fake punt.
