Ten and a half minutes into the first game of the 2020 XFL season, Seattle Dragons quarterback Brandon Silvers connected with wideout Austin Proehl for a 14-yard score and the first-ever touchdown in the alternative league's highly anticipated reboot.
Next, it was time for Seattle coach Jim Zorn to decide how to approach the point after touchdown. Under the new XFL rule changes, teams can choose between three options after scoring a touchdown: go for one point from the 2-yard line, two points from the 5-yard line, or three points from the 10-yard line.
