All three were with the Battlehawks during the 2024 campaign, and now are set to join the team for Training Camp in 2025.
RB Kevon Latulas
Kevon Latulas was one of the Battlehawks College Draft picks from 2023, who joined St. Louis in Training Camp. While Latulas was originally released, an injury to Mataeo Durant led to the Battlehawks bringing him back midway through the year.
Kevon ended up seeing action in the final two games of the season. He wasn’t given any carries, but saw the majority of his minutes on Special Teams, totaling five tackles.
In his three years at Missouri State, Kevon compiled 1,029 rushing yards alongside six touchdowns. He averaged an impressive 7.15 YPC in college. Additionally, Kevon made an impact through the air, with 458 receiving yards and 4 TD’s.
With Jacob Saylors currently in the NFL with the Giants, it’s likely that Kevon plays a bigger role for St. Louis in 2025.
WR Jerome Kapp
One of the underrated stories in the UFL this year was Jerome Kapp – who wasn’t utilized much, but played his role at a high level, doing whatever St. Louis needed him to do. Kapp primarily played on special teams, with 140 snaps there this season. He had six ST tackles in 2024.
THAT IS OUR BALL! 🙌

Jerome didn’t receive any targets this year on offense, being behind playmakers such as Hakeem Butler, Marcel Ateman, Darrius Shepherd, and others. That said, his willingness to still put in the work did not go…
