Daunte Culpepper has signed on to play for the UFL’s Sacramento Mountain Lions. He will be teamed up with his former Vikings coach, Dennis Green and former O-Coordinator at Central Florida, Mike Kruczek. This may be his last shot to make it in the NFL. By the middle of the NFL season he should be in great shape and ready to help a NFL team.
JP Losman has signed a one year deal to play for the Seattle Seahawks. Losman will battle for the number 3 QB job behind Matt Hasselbeck and Charlie Whitehurst. Losman, the once highly touted and first round pick of the Buffalo Bills, spent last year playing for the Las Vegas Locomotives of the UFL before finishing the season with the Oakland Raiders.
The Patriots have released veteran CB Shawn Springs. In the 2010 NFL Draft, the Pats drafted Devin McCourty, which is probably the main reason Springs will not be back with the team. There is talk that they might 
try to re-sign him. Either way for Springs, someone will come calling.
One big (if you even want to call it big) question looming…
Will TO ever find a home?

I worked as an athletic trainer for an open tryout that the Locos held in LA a few weeks ago. I talked to Jim Fassel for about an hour about the league. He told me they are expanding 3 more teams next year and the league wants a solid 12 teams with in the next 5 years. They do not want to be considered a “minor league” to the NFL or have any plans of competing with the NFL for fans, they just want to be “the other” league. This is why they are trying to start teams in non-NFL markets” i.e. Vegas, Omaha, Sacramento, Hartford, etc… The league looks like it has its foot in the door for becoming a solid second option to the NFL and with a possible lock out in 2011 they could receive more fans by default.
I hope more players who realize they do not have a place on an NFL roster option to play in the UFL.
