The Birmingham Stallions selected Holker 40th overall in the fourth round of the 2024 UFL draft, according to
their X account.
ANALYSIS
Across multiple years with BYU, Holker logged 23 receptions for 286 yards and two touchdowns. However, he significantly improved his statistical output after transferring to Colorado State. While enrolled there, Holker recorded 64 receptions for 767 yards and six TDs. Perhaps all that could explain why the NFL's New Orleans Saints signed him to a one-year contract with guaranteed money. But considering what the Birmingham Stallions just did, it was a notable risk they were willing to take.
