Former NFL offensive tackle Brennan Williams has signed with WWE. The company announced the news on Monday morning. Williams reports to Orlando, FL on Monday to begin his training at the WWE Performance Center.
A third-round draft pick of the Houston Texans in 2013, Williams played college ball at the University of North Carolina prior to joining the NFL. He was also part of the practice squads for the Jacksonville Jaguars and New England Patriots during his NFL tenure.
Williams began training under WWE Hall of Famer Booker T in October 2015. He made his in-ring debut for Booker’s Reality of Wrestling promotion earlier this year, competing under the alias Marcellus Black.
