Colts sign trick shot quarterback Alex Tanney to their practice squad
The Indianapolis Colts announced Tuesday that they’ve signed QB Alex Tanney to their practice squad.
He was the starting quarterback for the Monmouth College Fighting Scots. While Tanney was in college at Monmouth, he made a football trick shot video that went viral. On October 29, 2011, in a game against Carroll University, Tanney set the NCAA record for all-time career touchdown passes.
Since entering the NFL in 2012, Tanney has bounced around the NFL several times. He was recently signed by the Bills.
