Week four of the XFL took place over the weekend with three former Indiana Hoosiers football players in action. 

The Dallas Renegades fell to 2-2 on the season after a one-score loss to the Houston Roughnecks. In the game, former IU linebacker Tegray Scales racked up two solo tackles and one assisted tackle, bring his season total to 18. Scales also has one sack in four games so far. 

Defensive lineman Bobby Richardson tallied two solo tackles, including one for a loss. The ex-Hoosier added one quarterback hurry, one pass deflection, and an assisted tackle. Richardson helped the Tampa Bay Vipers pitch a shutout for their first win of the season, beating the DC Defenders 25-0. 

On the losing end of that game, Simmie Cobbs suited up for the Defenders. Cobbs was unable to record a stat on offense, but he added one tackle on special teams. 

The XFL season has six more weeks of regular season play followed by a final four playoff system in mid-April.
