Deestroying Sidelined Again: Is His Career OVER Already?

The San Antonio Brahmas have signed veteran kicker Tristan Vizcaino as Donald “Deestroying” De La Haye is once again sidelined with a groin injury expected to keep him out for multiple weeks.

Deestroying, the popular YouTuber-turned-kicker, had made strides this season, going 5-for-7 on field goal attempts before his latest setback. However, concerns are mounting about his durability after another injury just three games into the season — a troubling pattern that mirrors his brief stint last year, which also ended early due to injury.

With Deestroying out, the Brahmas are turning to a more experienced option in Vizcaino. The 27-year-old kicker has spent time with several NFL teams over the past six years. In limited NFL action, Vizcaino has made 11 of 12 field goal attempts (91.7%) and 15 of 20 extra points (75%), with his longest successful kick being a 47-yarder for the San Francisco 49ers back in 2020.

While fans are eager to see Vizcaino take the field, the spotlight remains on Deestroying’s future. After two seasons cut short by injury, questions are surfacing about whether he can physically withstand the grind of professional football. Despite his high-profile journey from viral content creator to pro athlete, the reality of the sport may be catching up to him.

Is this latest injury a temporary setback — or a sign that Deestroying’s football career may be in jeopardy?

The Brahmas and their fans will be hoping for a speedy recovery, but the clock may be ticking on one of the XFL’s most unique stories.
