With the sixth overall pick in the “Protect or Pick” quarterback draft on Tuesday, the Stallions selected Josh Woodrum.
“Number one, Josh is a football player, and number two, he’s a great person,” said Stallions general manager Randy Mueller in a press release. “I think he’s going to be a great addition to the chemistry of the football team, this organization and the community. He’s got a lot of outstanding attributes as a person and as a player that will make an immediate impact both on and off the field.”
