Grand Rapids Rampage News Release


GRAND RAPIDS - Embarking on their 10th Anniversary Season, the Grand Rapids Rampage will unveil a brand new look on Wednesday (Feb. 7) at 2 p.m. EST when four of the team's top players model new uniforms.

The event, to be held at GP Sports located in Grand Rapids' Amway Grand Plaza Hotel, will feature Rampage wide receiver/defensive back Timon Marshall (Kingston, Jamaica), quarterback Chad Salisbury (Perryopolis, Pa.), fullback/linebacker Chris Avery (Grenada, Miss.) and defensive back Jonathan Ordway (Seffner, Fla.) The new uniforms, consisting of two different jerseys and pants and a new helmet, will be worn in four different combinations. Each player will model one of the styles. The uniforms were produced by Russell Athletic, the official uniform supplier for the Arena Football League, while the helmets were produced by Schutt Sports.

Fans can catch an early glimpse of one of the four uniform combinations during Super Bowl XLI on Sunday (Feb. 4). Marshall wears the new uniform during a television advertisement set to air on WWMT-TV 3 immediately following the end of the third quarter. If one viewing isn't enough, fans can watch the commercial over and over again at RampageFootball.com/FanZone immediately following its broadcast on WWMT-TV 3.

All sports fans are encouraged to join the Rampage at GP Sports to see all four new uniforms and meet four of West Michigan's top football stars.
