After a week of not putting up any numbers, he had himself a solid game in hopes of earning more time on the field next week. The Defender defense dominated this game all around. 

The D.C. Defenders beat the NY Guardians 27-0. The Defenders moved to 2-0, at the top of the East, while the Guardians dropped to 1-1 and third in the Eastern Conference.

Battle and the Seattle Dragons won their matchup this week against the Tampa Bay Vipers. After putting up great yards in week one, the Dragons slowed down a bit this week, totaling only 199 yards. Although they did get the win, the offense wasn't as explosive as the week before. 

The Seattle Dragons moved up to 1-1, second in the Western Conference. The Vipers take another loss, as they dropped down to the bottom of the East.
