Posted in The National Football Post reports that former Falcon QB D.J. Shockley has joined the UFL:
The Omaha Nighthawks have invited former Atlanta Falcons quarterback D.J. Shockley to attend their minicamp, and he’s confirmed he’ll attend. Shockley isn’t listed on the Nighthawks’ roster. “I just got off the phone with D.J. and he’s all set,” Nighthawks football operations executive Ken Stills said. “He’s a great character guy. We’re very excited about having D.J. aboard.” Drafted in the seventh round out of the University of Georgia in the 2006 NFL draft, Shockley was out for the entire 2007 season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral damage. At the time, he was contending for a starting job.
