At least we know someone was watching the XFL before they wrapped their season five weeks early. The Pittsburgh Steelers recently signed two XFL players from the New York Guardians and now they've also signed former DC Defender safety Tyree Kinnel.

USA Today couldn't find much on Kinnel, except that he played college football for the University of Michigan and he that he was signed as an undrafted free agent by the NFL's Bengals.
