Carolina Cobras sign WR Ryne Markey DesRuisseaux.
from D.J. Wagner, with the Carolina Cobras
Greensboro, NC

The Carolina Cobras are happy to announce the signing of WR Markey DesRuisseaux for the 2020 season.

Markey DesRuisseaux (6’1” 175 Snow College) Has experience playing Semi-Pro League football and also played in the AAL for the New England Bobcats.

When asked about himself and coming to the Cobras DesRuisseaux said this; “I came from a small town that made me get overlooked by D1 and NFL teams, and getting pushed to the side. Coach Bill Savary always said, “Keep fighting, your time will come.” Coach Payton saw the drive and the hunger I had as I drove from Connecticut to Massachusetts every day to compete with top level players. I appreciate the opportunity to play and show this league why I received this call and want to thank the Man above for this blessing. Go Cobras!!”
