Phillips missed much of the offseason due to declining health. After a 0–2 start to the season, Offensive Coordinator A. J. Smith resigned. Special teams coordinator and wide receivers coach Payton Pardee was promoted to fulfill the vacancy. In week three, Phillips suffered a medical emergency during the Brahmas' April 13 game against the Michigan Panthers, forcing Pardee to take over head coaching duties for the remainder of the game. Phillips then took a personal leave of absence for the remainder of the 2025 season on April 16, 2025, naming Pardee as his successor. [4] Smith later remarked there was an internal power struggle in the Brahmas organization that led to his resignation. [5]
In Pardees first full game as interim head coach, the Brahmas defeated the DC Defenders, who were the eventual XFL Conference champions 24–18. After losing the following week to Houston, starting quarterback Kellen Mond was replaced by Kevin Hogan. [6] Hogan was winless in his three starts and unavailable for the final two games due to an injury. Mond returned as the starter and Brahmas ended the season on a six game losing streak.
The Brahmas finished the season 1–9, six wins less from the 2024 season. All-UFL Team running back Jashaun Corbin led the league with 514 rushing yards despite having five games with under ten carries. [7] All-UFL Team linebacker Tavante Beckett led the league with 89 tackles. Punter Brad Wing was named All-UFL Team while returners Mathew Sexton and Jaden Shirden won Special Teams Player of the Week awards in week four and nine, respectively.
