Woodside, Logan (2)

CARD: Topps AAF 2019 Certified HACK
ACQUIRED: TTM 2026, C/o Home
SENT: 4/15 RECEIVED: 5/21 (36 days)
FAILURE: TTM 2019, C/o The Tennessee Titans

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

  • See Also Logan Woodside
  • Since the AAF folded, Logan has kept his agent quite busy bouncing around from franchise to franchise as a scout team/ 3rd string QB.
  • After making the roster of the Titans in 2019, he’d be on and off the practice squad and regular season roster throughout 2022.
  • Saw his first NFL regular season playing time in 2020, completing 1 of 3 passes for 7 yards.
  • He was then signed to the Falcons roster at the end of the year, and was on Atlanta throughout 2023, and into 2024.
  • During the ’23 season, Woodside saw the most regular season playtime up to that point, completing 3 of 4 passes for 27 yards and a pick.
  • Returned to Cinci in 2024, and was on and off the practice squad/ regular season roster until his release during summer of ’25.
  • The next stop was a trip to Pittsburgh, from August to October of 2025.
  • At the end of the 2025 season, he’d be signed to the Cardinals practice squad.

NOTES:

My friend Joe rode in to the rescue on this one, nabbing him TTM while I was just thinking about it. Armed with the address he provided me I printed out the card and got it straight out to Logan as soon as I could. As I’ve been hamstrung with my PC for about 8 months or so, I had to delicately reconstruct the template and drop the photo in on a Photoshop alternative. In the end, it worked out fantastic and I was ecstatic to get Logan back on a Commanders card I made after my previous failure back in 2019.

Logan among the AAF starting QBs probably spent the most time in the NFL. While he hasn’t seen very much playing time, he has carved himself out a nice spot in history.

Tanielu, Handsome

CARD: Topps AAF 2019
ACQUIRED: Private Break, 2020

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

  • Handsome Tanielu played DL first at Snow JC from 2014 to 2015.
  • Posted 38 total tackles, 6 tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, a pass deflection, and 3 forced fumbles in 17 contests.
  • Transferred to Brigham Young for his Junior and Senior seasons.
  • Finished with 41 total tackles, and one pass deflection.
  • Undrafted, he caught the eye of the Kansas City Chiefs who had him in for minicamp.
  • He stayed in playing shape and in 2019 was signed by the Salt Lake City Stallions of the AAF.
  • Saw action in 3 games for the top ranked defense, posting a pass deflection.
  • Drafted by the XFL Houston Roughnecks in 2020, but did not make the squad.

NOTES:

Looking back it’s easy to see why Topps chose Handsome, who not only had a marketable name, but that he was also a fireplug- clocking in at 6’0″, 331 lbs.

Jeffcoat, Jim (2)

CARDS: Topps AAF 2019 Certified HACK, Pro Set 1989, Action Packed 1990, Fleer 1990
ACQUIRED: 2025, Paid Signing

CAREER SNAPSHOT:

  • See Jim Jeffcoat
  • Coached with the San Jose Spartans through 2012.
  • Took job in same capacity for the Buffs at Colorado in 2013.
  • Was in Boulder through 2017 before hopping over to coach for Steve Spurrier and the Orlando Apollos of the AAF in 2019.
  • Coached in the XFL 2020 with the Dallas Renegades before the COVID pandemic killed the league.

NOTES:

So I’ve been after Jim since I got him way back at Westlake High School when the Cowboys had a scrimmage there in… 1991 I think? He had a really nice Fleer card, that I even drew into a larger picture later. Beyond that I had set needs with the Pro Set 89 and the Action Packed card that have emerged over the years.

The 2019 AAF Certified HACK card is one that I made well after the league folded. I remember asking for his autograph after the Orlando Apollos beat the Commanders in San Antonio. He just glared at me and stormed away. It was one of the few times I feared for my life asking for an autograph. Ha ha.

Jim doesn’t sign TTM so to get him via a paid signing for such a nice price, it was totally worth it.
