LAS VEGAS (AFLWA) – Grand Rapids Rampage wide
receiver/defensive back Timon Marshall totaled 262 all-purpose
yards in a victory over the San Jose SaberCats, and is the Arena
Football League Writers Association (AFLWA) Player of the Week.
He averaged 21.8 yards on 12 touches in the Rampage's 66-52 win.
Marshall returned six kickoffs for 181 yards with a touchdown, and
caught four passes for 81 yards with two TDs. Marshall also made 4 1/2
tackles.
His 58-yard kickoff return for a score gave the Rampage a 29-26
halftime lead.
"Our guys take pride in special teams play," Marshall told the Grand
Rapids Press. "They were blocking everyone because I was untouched. I
didn't see anyone but the kicker."
