Grand Rapids Rampage News Release


Grand Rapids Rampage WR/DB Timon Marshall's performance in the team's 66-52 win over the SaberCats has been recognized as the Arena Football League Writers Association's Player of the Week and ArenaFan.com's Two-Way Player of the Week.

Marshall (5'09," 188 lbs., Ottawa) compiled career highs in all-purpose yards (262), kickoff return yards (181), total touchdowns (3) and tackles (4.5) against the SaberCats. The Jamaica native returned six kickoffs for 181 yards (eighth most in team history); including the longest scoring play in franchise history on a 58-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. He also caught four passes for 81 yards with touchdown strikes of 40 and 29 yards. On defense, Marshall had 4.5 tackles.

This marks the second time in team history that a Rampage player has been named AFLWA Player of the Week (Michael Bishop earned the same honor exactly one year ago today for his 412 total yard performance in a losing effort against Austin).

Marshall was a candidate for ArenaFan.com's Offensive Player of the Week as well as the AFL's Offensive Player of the Week and Ironman of the Week.
