Spencer Myers battles Michael Kroells of Minnesota"Myers is expected to play defensive line and offensive line for the Los Angeles-based AFL team," the Baltimore Sun reported Wednesday. "Represented by former Maryland football player Chad Wiestling, Myers is hoping to eventually play in the NFL."
Myers went undrafted after working out for 30 NFL teams at the Terps' campus pro day workout this spring, where he bench-pressed 225 pounds 29 times. The 6-foot-3, 270-pounder performed offensive and defensive line drills this spring.
Myers came to University of Maryland as a wrestler in 2010, and joined the school's football team in 2014. As a Terp heavyweight, Myers earned All-American honors at the 2011 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships as a freshman, and was a three-time ACC (Atlantic Coast Conference) championships finalist, winning back-to-back conference crowns in 2011 and 2012. He also won titles at the Wilkes and Franklin & Marshall Open tournaments. At Selinsgrove High School, Myers won the 215-pound title at the 2010 Pennsylvania state championships, and was named Pennsylvania High School Wrestler of the Year. He was also on the school's track-and-field and football squads, earning Pennsylvania Defensive Player of the Year honors in 2010.
