Spokane Shock News Release
Spokane, WA: The Spokane Shock announced today WR Doug Beaumont has been added to the 2012 roster. The Shock also released WR Julius Lloyd and moved OL Corey Brandon from the PUP List to the Injured-Reserve List.
Beaumont, 5-9 190, played in three preseason games for the Atlanta Falcons earlier this season and was also in camp with the Chicago Rush. Prior to his professional career, Beaumont was a teammate of QB Adam Froman at the University of Louisville where he recorded 141 receptions for 1,655 yards with one touchdown.
