Seattle Sea Dragons Sign Former Arkansas Razorbacks DL Markell Utsey

On Wednesday, the Sea Dragons announced the addition of former Arkansas Razorbacks defensive lineman Markell Utsey, who will wear number 90 for Seattle. This signing comes following the tragic news of defensive lineman Chris Smith passing away earlier this week.

DL – Markell Utsey

College: Missouri (2016 – 2020), Arkansas (2021)

Pro Experience: N/A

Markell Utsey played 5 seasons at Mizzou before transferring to Arkansas for his final year of eligibility. He appeared in 53 games (25 starts) throughout his collegiate career, totaling 54 tackles (29 solo/ 25 assisted), 6 tackles for loss, 2 sacks, 1 forced fumble, and 2 pass deflections.

Utsey went undrafted during the 2022 NFL Draft and didn’t sign anywhere as an undrafted free agent. The D.C. Defenders selected him in the XFL’s 2023 supplemental draft but didn’t make their final roster.
