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:
Yes! What a play drawn up by Mike! Randle El Shovel 68 (Pitch to Randle El. Shovel to Jerome.) Pretty neat! He even wrote in a few player names including Bettis, Hines, Kordell Stewart and Randle El. So we know for certain this play came from his golden era with the Steelers between 2001-’03. Mike’s nickname ‘Inspector Gadget’ came from his penchant for gadget plays during his time with Pittsburgh.
To be honest, Mike got no respect. I remember when the Titans hired him as their head coach, everyone, even flaming tacks fans were snickering or uninspired by the choice- but much to Mike’s credit, he did build a successful team, and then he was run out of town.. after making the playoffs!
