Just a lovely card with a simple, yet dynamic design and great photography. Quinn was one of the more recognizable names from this acquisition I made from a friend of mine- CFLFanInPhilly.
I was really touched by his willingness to part with these cards at an affordable price. He also told me that he’d been approached by college team set autograph collectors who offered to buy the cards out separately from their favorite teams, but he wanted them to go to someone who’d actually value all of them based on their appreciation of Spring Football.
Felton Huggins played wide receiver at Southeastern Louisiana from 2003-2005.
Over that period he set school career records for receptions (162), yards (2,345) and TD catches (22).
He also set single season marks in 2004, in pass receptions (84), receiving yards (1,313) and TD catches (13).
Signed with the Jaguars in 2007 and allocated to NFL Europa’s Frankfurt Galaxy.
Caught 19 passes with two going for TDs.
Returned stateside and joined the Bills from 2007-09.
Briefly popped back up on the pro radar with the Montreal Alouettes of the CFL in 2012.

NOTES:
A surprise bonus autograph thrown in by CFL Fan in Philly, I really like this card a lot. It’s a great photo and the lighting is spot on. I enjoy diving in and learning about players like Felton, as I feel it really brings me closer to the sport.
Solid athlete started career as a DB for Ohio State in 1997 and 98.
Transferred to Western Illinois and was moved to TE by coaches who said he reminded him of Marv Cook.
Playing for the Leathernecks from 99-01, broke school receiving records.
At pro day as FB ran a 4.5 40 and was nicknamed ‘The Fastest Fullback in the NFL’, by then head coach Mike Martz.
Undrafted in 2002, was signed to the active roster of the Rams off of the Seahawks as a TE
Spent a total of 4 seasons with the Rams, joining the Frankfurt Galaxy in 2005 playing RB.

NOTES:
A special bonus card thrown in when I purchased the remaining AAF sets I needed, I really get a kick out of these ‘deep cuts’ like JR Niklos.
