At Saint Augustine’s, the Falcons’ quarterback played one season in 2019 with 700 passing yards and five touchdowns in six games.

Major League Football is a football league that has been around since 2009. The league’s goal is to coach players “in preparation for another look by the NFL and other leagues.”

MLFB players are paid $2,000 per week and a $500 per win bonus in addition to other incentives in the event of a championship appearance.

The Arkansas Attack is one of four teams in the league. Their current head coach Earnest Wilson is a former head coach for Savannah State and Elizabeth City State.
