The Birmingham Stallions selected Bailey 24th overall in the third round of the 2024 UFL draft, according to
their X account.
ANALYSIS
Before 2022, Bailey transferred to TCU from Louisiana-Lafayette after a breakout season with the Ragin' Cajuns. Despite a big jump in collegiate competition, he saved his best year for last. Bailey logged 223 carries for 1,209 yards (5.4 averaged per carry) and eight touchdowns across his 12 games as part of TCU's 2023 team. While undrafted in the 2024 NFL Draft, he did earn a contract from the back-to-back NFL champion Kansas City Chiefs. Whether they release him or not, Bailey will have to deal with champs nonetheless, considering the Birmingham Stallions also went back-to-back.
