He signed as a rookie free agent with the Kansas City Chiefs practice squad for the 1995 season. In 1996, he made the Houston Oilers practice squad, but was waived only to be re-signed by the Chiefs.

One notable player was Gavin Hastings, a Scottish rugby international who was used as a place kicker in 1996.
