Darnell Sankey is heading to the XFL.

A CFL source said Wednesday that the veteran middle linebacker has signed with the Arlington Renegades of the XFL.

The six-foot-one, 245-pound Sankey became a CFL free agent Tuesday.

Sankey, 28, registered a CFL-leading 120 tackles last season, his first with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
