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.

NOTES:

Greg was one of my favorite players on the Commanders, and after the league folded, I got a jersey of him off of DHGate back in 2020. When the XFL returned in 2023, I wore this jersey to the meet and greet with Hines Ward. I wore it to the first game, and I wore it when the UFL took shape. I wore it even though other fans were telling me it was time to let go. I couldn’t believe it when Greg was signed by the Brahmas. I thought it had to be a publicity ploy or something but I kept pinching myself hoping he’d make the team.

When the meet and greet was announced, I speculated that the players in attendance would probably be new QB Kellen Mond, someone like Tavante Beckett… Caveon Patton always shows up since he’s local… and maybe an old head like Greg Ward. I absolutely nailed it.

He was nice enough to sign these cards and the jersey I was wearing. It is the first jersey- surprisingly in all these years- that I’ve had signed. Sure in hindsight, I should’ve had Jamie Sharper sign his or Kenneth Farrow.. but now I gotta figure out how to frame this thing. The cards! Ah the cards… These were cards I wanted him to sign dating back to his time with the Commanders and I had and the Ultimate and the Peak Performance cards were burning a hole in my pocket! So glad to get them all signed while the hack card is the cream of the cake. Yes!

Despite the wear I put it through, I was gentle with the jersey and it will look great on the wall. I did have a few nitpicks about it but considering there were no player jerseys made, this isn’t bad at all.

Later after the event I bought an XFL player practice jersey off of Ebay of his current number with the Brahmas. Then I realized it was probably for 2023 or ’24…. And then I realized it was too small to fit on me. I’m sure it will look good on my daughter at a game.

NOTES:

Well I should count my blessings I got him once when the players were signing at Dick’s Sporting Goods at the Rim, but I really wanted him on his AAF base card. Buoyed by the success I had with Derron Smith, I figured I’d be able to square Zack away. Unfortunately it’s been nothing but a zero-burger from him. I even tracked down his work place and shot him a card, but no dice.
