Add Dwayne Bowe to the list of former NFL players interested in playing in Vince McMahon's XFL reboot in 2020.

Bowe, who has been busy pursuing a rap career since he was released by the Cleveland Browns in March 2016, told TMZ Sports he would give the league a shot - provided it pays well.

"I'd definitely do the XFL," the wide receiver said. "If the money's right, I'd definitely do it."

McMahon has stated that he won't accept players with criminal backgrounds, which would seemingly rule out Bowe, who was arrested for speeding and possession of marijuana in 2013. He later pleaded guilty to charges of littering and defective equipment.
