WR Justin Hall | Houston Roughnecks
News: The Houston Roughnecks are re-signing WR Justin Hall, per @uflanalyst.
Hall is one of the most electrifying playmakers in all of spring football. He had 603 yards & 3 TD’s for the @XFLRoughnecks this season in the #UFL.
Big retention for this Houston offense. pic.twitter.com/JYdkinnCn6

The speedster is back. Justin Hall has consistently been one of the most electrifying wide receivers in all of spring football the last couple of years. He joined the Houston Gamblers for the 2023 USFL season, recording 513 receiving yards and four touchdowns that year. Hall led the Gamblers in both of those categories.
This is the Kenji Bahar we’ve been waiting to see in the #USFL this season.
Drops a dime to Justin Hall for the TD, and just like that we’re tied up at half time. If @KBahar11 can consistently sling it as he did on that final drive, look out.pic.twitter.com/0GK33T2Ine

When the Gamblers transitioned into the Houston Roughnecks, Hall made the jump with Coach C.J. Johnson and his squad. Justin once again was a force to be reckoned with, even with this strange low usage rate to begin the year.
Justin Hall ended up leading the team in receiving yards once again, with 604. Despite dealing with three different quarterbacks this year, he was as productive as could be. He shockingly wasn’t even an All-UFL nominee, despite being 3rd in the UFL in receiving yards. Justin also had three touchdowns on the year.
