TAMPA BAY - The five-time World Champion Tampa Bay Storm have re-signed lineman A.J. Ricker to a one-year contract, Head Coach and Director of Football Operations Tim Marcum announced today.
Ricker, a 6-foot-4, 295-pound native of Houston, Texas is coming off his rookie campaign in the Arena Football League. In 2006 he accumulated 5.5 tackles (four solo, three assisted) and one fumble recovery. Ricker was one of eight Storm players who appeared in all 16 contests last season.
