The Rock’s XFL Eyes YouTube Sensation After Kaepernick Declines

Johnson's team aimed for NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick as an XFL star, but despite talks, this may not happen. Kaepernick's interest in playing for the New York Jets indicates his lack of enthusiasm for the XFL.

A YouTube Sensation on the Radar

With Kaepernick out of the picture, Johnson eyes an unusual choice: Donald De La Haye or Deestroying. The 26-year-old YouTuber, who briefly played in the Canadian Football League, has expressed interest in the XFL during a recent meeting with Dwayne Johnson and co-owner Dana Garcia. 

Deestroying’s YouTube Journey

Prior to YouTube, Deestroying played college football but faced NCAA rules preventing channel profits while on a sports scholarship. Opting for YouTube full-time, his choice raises questions about his football aspirations amid the approaching XFL season.

As we await Johnson's decision, the XFL's talent hunt continues, showcasing their determination in sports and entertainment. Will Deestroying join the XFL in 2024? Stay tuned for updates.
