In 2016, Johnathon Saint was selected by the Colorado Yeti with the 58th overall pick in the inaugural NSFL draft. His impact was felt immediately, as he was sixth in the league in tackles with 101 and tied for second in sacks with 14. His contributions would earn him a Pro Bowl selection and the first ever NSFL Linebacker of the Year award. The Yeti’s 8-6 record was third highest in the league and qualified them for a playoff berth. After defeating the Wraiths in the NSFC championship game, they would ultimately lose the Arizona Outlaws in the first ever Ultimus Bowl by a score of 6-29. This would be the last time that Saint would appear in the playoffs until the twilight of his career.
