Scott Orndoff - playing in the new AAFL.....(including link)

Panther Parrothead · Feb 10, 2019

The Alliance of American Football League kicked off action Saturday night and Waynesburg native Scott Orndoff was part of the event, playing for the Orlando Apollos. The new league has two more games today.

Orndoff, a tight end who played at Pitt after a stellar career at Seton-La Salle High School, went to training camp in 2017 with the Steelers but an injury led to his release.

He has since bounced around with Detroit, Cincinnati and Jacksonville before signing on to play in the fledgling AAF this spring.

The AAF includes eight franchises this season. It’s the brainchild of filmmaker Charlie Ebersol and former NFL general manager Bill Polian. Its leadership board includes former Steelers stars Hines Ward and Troy Polamalu.

The new spring league’s games will be televised by CBS.

Orndoff is hardly the only player people will recognize in the games. A number of former Steelers players or draft picks are on AAF rosters, including former WVU linebacker Terence Garvin with Orlando, quarterback Zach Mettenberger with Memphis and cornerback Doran Grant with Atlanta.
