Roughnecks make QB change, Silvers among inactives
The Houston Roughnecks have released their Week 7 inactive list, and it indicates a quarterback change. Cole McDonald is expected to start at quarterback for the Roughnecks Sunday against St. Louis. Brandon Silvers, the team’s starting quarterback thus far, is inactive.
Inactives:
12 QB Brandon Silvers
57 DL Charles Wiley
76 OL Sage Doxtater
78 OL Dylan Pasquali
81 WR Jaquarii Roberson
89 LB Tim Ward
Ward being inactive for the second straight week is a blow to the defense. He entered Week 7 second in the XFL in both sacks and tackles for loss, behind teammate Trent Harris in both categories.
