Had 7 catches for 130 yards and a TD for the Apollos during their abbreviated 2019 season.
Best game came against the Birmingham Iron when he caught 3 passes for 61 yards and a TD.
Waived during Tampa Bay’s final cuts of 2019, he later signed with the Eagles, but was cut at the end of the year.
NOTES:
Great autograph here from Scott. I think that my buddy Mark from Mark’s Signing Bonus floated this address along to me. I think that Scott could’ve really had a career in Spring ball if he had just kept chugging with the XFL and USFL.

NOTES:
Andy had a lot of cards throughout his career. Oddly he didn’t make the cut with any of my favorite pet sets, but he happened to be in my favorite draft- 1989. His son currently plays OL for the Houston Texans.
In 2010, became the first player in NCAA history to pass for over 2,500 yards and rush for over 1,500 in a single year.
Finest moment came that year in a game against Notre Dame, accounting for 502 of the Wolverine’s 532 yards.
Had 3 games passing and rushing for 200+ yards each.
Completed college career passing for 6250 yards and 49 TDs, while rushing 723 times for 4495 yards and 42 TDs.
5th round selection of the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2013.
Played 4 seasons for the Jaguars, after converting to RB.
Best season came in 2014, rushing 135 times for 582 yards and 4 TDs, while catching 23 receptions for 124 yards.
Injuries derailed development at the end of the 2014 season, lasting into 2015, allowing for TJ Yeldon to take starting job.
After trying out for the Bears in 2018, remained in playing shape and signed with the Atlanta Legends of the AAF for 2019.

ACCOLADES:
Set NCAA record for most yards rushing by a QB (4,495)
2010 Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year

NOTES:
Denard was pretty easy to find on the web, but he wouldn’t sign from home. It took him a while to get back to me, but it appears he signs his fanmail once a year through the Jags right now.
I was pretty disappointed in the Topps AAF 2019 entry. The fact that the certified is just the same as the base card minus a few effects is quite lazy.
