Rush Sign Saxer

Looking for leadership in the Kicking position, the Rush sign Tom Saxer to a one year, $20k contract on Wednesday. They received Saxer in a deal with the Mean Machine of Long Island. In exchange for the rights for Saxer, the Rush sent cash considerations in the amount of $10k.

Rush Owner and General Manager, Brett Richardson discussed the deal: "We are always looking for leadership and Saxer brings us some leadership at the K spot. Wade Mickey is an excellent kicker and still figures into our plans."

One of these two will most likely end up on the 6-man Practice Squad.
