Former NFL linebacker Anthony Wint will fight for a UFC contract on Dana White’s Contender Series, per multiple media reports.

Wint played college football at Florida International University, where he was a three-time All-Conference USA selection. He signed with the New York Jets as an undrafted free agent in 2018.

He appeared in two NFL games that season, recording one tackle and a forced fumble.

In 2023, Wint made the shift to mixed martial arts. Thus far, he has collected a 6-0 record with four wins by knockout and one by submission.

The 30-year-old heavyweight is listed at 6’0″ and 224 pounds. He will take on Matt Adams (6-2) on August 11 at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas.
