Illinois) was active for regular season six games last season with the ArenaBowl champion San Jose SaberCats but did not record any stats being behind All-Arena first team DS Omarr Smith. Prior to his time with the SaberCats, he played in the CFL with the Toronto Argonauts and Hamilton TigerCats and was in the 2001 New Orleans Saints training camp. Played cornerback for two seasons at the University of Illinois after transferring from El Camino College where he was a two-time All-Mission Conference selection.
