This year, Free Agency was tough on the Wraiths. They lost several key bids, including a particularly heartbreaking offer to Alex Hansen after he was retained via the Restricted Free Agent tag, a target of much controversy in its own right this offseason. The Wraiths even lost star Wide Receiver Josh Gordon after a $23 million offer from the Outlaws was too much to pass up. Then, suddenly, hope came in the form of Quarterback Ethan Hunt.
Hunt had faced some adversity of his own this offseason. After being primed for a new opportunity, Hunt’s expectations were dashed as an influx of new players turned the league upside down. Several previous desired positions were now oversaturated, including the Quarterback position. Hunt was blindsided and left with nowhere to turn. Even the Wraiths had solved their Quarterback problems after former offense lineman Mat Akselsen tried out at the position and discovered himself to be the natural. However, the two sides still saw a path forward. Hunt signed with the Wraiths and immediately made the switch to Wide Receiver in a move that no way saw coming. Furthermore, he owned his new role and took on the new moniker of “Gosh Jardon”, an obvious jab at the Wraiths’ former Wide Receiver. No one expected Hunt to be an instant replacement for Garden, but that hasn’t stopped him from trying as he’s quickly impressed in his new role. It looks like the sky’s the limit for this new receiver.
