SALISBURY, Md. - The Cincinnati Jungle Kats of the Arena Football 2 League have recently signed former Salisbury University offensive lineman Jerrod Sample to a contract for the 2007 season.

Sample, a two-time All-Atlantic Central Football Conference selection, was a catalyst on an offensive line that opened the holes for the fourth ranked rushing attack in 2005. The Sea Gulls rushed for over 330 yards per game and scored a school record 442 points.

The Bishopville, Md., native becomes the second Sea Gull to sign with an Arena 2 team. Earlier this year, former quarterback Dustin Johnson signed with the Amarillo Dusters.

The Jungle Kats will make their AF2 debut in ‘07 and are in tri-ownership by current Cincinnati Bengals defensive linemen Sam Adams, Cincinnati Reds centerfielder Ken Griffey Jr. and Dr. Timothy Kremchek.
