Event Date: January 8th, 1988
Event Description: Outlaws Sign Ex-Jayhawk
The Oklahoma Outlaws have signed Kansas City Chiefs' third-string quarterback Frank Seurer to a two-year deal the team announced yesterday.
The team now has three quarterbacks on their roster, including ex-NFLers Glenn Carano and Rick Neuheisel, as the team prepares for the opening of training camp.
Head coach Woody Widenhofer said Seurer would compete for the starting job alongside Carano and Neuheisel.
“If you can get the rights to a player who has already made an NFL team you have someone of proven quality,”Widenhofer said. “The problem there is that Kansas City has a lot of money invested in Kenney and Blackledge, that’s why Seurer became available.” Widenhofer said.
Seurer, 25, was drafted by the Los Angeles Express in 1984 after starring at Kansas. The five year veteran played for the Express for two seasons before leaving for the National Football League.
