Former Ole Miss quarterback Jordan Ta’amu will get another shot in the NFL after a brief, but impressive stint in the XFL.
Ta’amu signed a one-year deal with the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs on Monday, as confirmed by agent Kenny Zuckerman on Twitter.
Ta’amu won the starting position for the St. Louis BattleHawks over former Mississippi State quarterback Nick Fitzgerald at the start of the season and impressed in the XFL’s abbreviated return. He quickly established himself as one of the top signal callers in the league while leading his team to an unexpected 3-2 record before the season was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
