\n\t\t\t\t\t\tThe Orlando Storm continues to be recognized as one of the premier franchises in the UFL. The Storm received five selections to the 2026 All-UFL team. The selections are another showcase of the talent and depth that have helped the Storm become a top franchise. The United Football League announced that quarterback Jack Plummer, wide receiver and return specialist Chris Rowland, offensive lineman Michael Gonzalez, and defensive tackle Isaiah Buggs earned the honor, recognizing them among the league’s top performers at their respective positions. \u201cEach of these players dominated at their individual positions, and it was a pleasure to coach and watch them have their success this season. I couldn\u2019t be more proud of their accomplishments this year,\u201d Storm head coach Anthony Becht said The All-UFL team is selected by a panel of media members, broadcast partners, and coaches and staff among the eight teams within the league. Selections were based upon individual player performances throughout the 10-game season. Jack Plummer, quarterback Plummer provided exceptional offense throughout the season, leading the team to an 8-2 season and the No. 1 seed in the UFL postseason. He led the league in passing yards and completions, finishing with 2,188 passing yards and 195 completions on 300 attempts with 17 touchdowns. Remarkably, Plummer threw a touchdown and scored a touchdown himself in every game. Plummer also holds the UFL record with 255 pass attempts without an interception. Chris Rowland, wide receiver\/return specialistA rarity, Rowland was the only player to be selected for two positions: wide receiver and kick return specialist. He finished the season as the UFL leading receiver with 53 receptions, totaling 529 receiving yards and five touchdowns. The Tennessee native also became one of the most robust return specialists within the league, totaling 377 kickoff return yards on his 13 attempts. This consistency, when paired with Plummer’s explosive ability with the football, continuously put the Storm in prime striking distance. Michael Gonzalez, linemanGonzalez went the distance for the Storm, starting in all 10 games in the regular season. He helped anchor an offensive line that was among the best in the league in sacks allowed with 19, only allowing six sacks throughout the 10-game season. Gonzalez was graded at 90% every game and never allowed a sack. Isaiah Buggs, defensive tackleOn the defensive side of things, Buggs pestered opposing offenses, finishing with nine tackles for loss and becoming one of the league’s top 10 in the category. He acted as a massive disruption at the line of scrimmage with 24 tackles, leading the league in holding his opponents on third-down conversions with a 31% conversion rate and a UFL best in the red zone, allowing only 14 touchdowns on 34 attempts.The selections enhance the confidence the team is carrying into the playoffs, especially with being matched up with a team they have seen multiple times throughout the season.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
