The Stuttgart Surge have signed former Division I cornerback Malcolm Washington for the 2022 season.
Washington played the first 2 seasons of his college career at Fresno State before transferring to Northern Iowa for his final 2 years. He played 47 total games (27 starts) in the college ranks and recorded 124 tackles, 6 interceptions, 13 pass deflections, 1 tackle for loss, and 1 touchdown. He’s also spent time with the Allgäu Comets of the German Football League in 2019.
The Stuttgart Surge have re-signed former Division I linebacker Ronley Lakalaka for the 2022 season.
Lakalaka commented on his return to the Surge, stating,
“I signed with the Surge because the coaches and players believe in my ability to take the team to the next level, the beautiful city, and the already established friendships and brotherhood that I have created for when I signed last year toward the end of the season because of a linebacker getting hurt, for the coaching staff to believe in me on short notice, it was a no brainer at that point”.
Lakalaka played college ball at San Diego State and was invited to the New York Jets rookie minicamp in 2019, but he did not make the team. He’d later sign with the CFL’s BC Lions but would sit out almost 2 full seasons due to a broken ankle.
Last season with the Surge, Lakalaka appeared in 3 games, totaling 16 tackles and one tackle for loss.
