Matt McGloin had a miserable first half Satuday as the New York Guardians faced the DC Defenders in an XFL game. The former Penn State QB led an offense that produced one first down — the other came on a fake punt — and was 5-of-13 for 32 yards with an interception as New York fell behind, 12-0.
McGloin was interviewed by ABC’s Dianna Russini as he left for halftime and went off:
Russini spoke to coach Kevin Gilbride after the break and the Guardians’ boss said he wanted his quarterback to “play better” and he would have a conversation with the 30-year-old McGloin, who once started for the Oakland Raiders.
It would be hard for McGloin and the Guardians’ offense to play worse.
Well, they actually found a way. McGloin threw a Pick-Six to ILB Jameer Thurman on New York’s first drive of the second half.
“Poor decision by me,” McGloin said. “I’ve gotta take the sack there.”
