The St. Louis Battlehawks placed offensive lineman Sage Doxtater on the injured reserve list on Sunday.
Sage Doxtater is six foot seven and weighs 350 pounds. The 25-year-old from London, Ontario, played five games at left tackle for the Houston Roughnecks (XFL) in 2023. The Battlehawks signed Doxtater as a free agent on January 24, 2024.
Before Houston, Doxtater was drafted by the Toronto Argonauts in the second round (12th pick) in the 2021 CFL Draft but chose to return to New Mexico State for his final season.
Doxtater would sign with the New Orleans Saints as an undrafted free agent in 2022. He would later sign with the Arizona Cardinals and was placed on the practice squad before returning to New Orleans on January 4, 2023.
Collegiately, Doxtater played six seasons at New Mexico State University (2016-21) playing left tackle in 49 games for the Aggies. In 2019, New Mexico State’s offense averaged 217.6 passing yards per game, and 143.5 rushing yards per game. He was named to the 2016 Sun Belt Conference All-Newcomer Team.
