Wrocław Panthers sign Specialist of the Year Devan Burrell

The Wrocław Panthers start November 1st with a bang. The Special Teams Player of the Year and 1st team All-Star Devan Burrell is heading to Poland on a one-year deal. After A.J. Wentland, who received a two-year deal last year, Burrell is the second US-American being signed to the defense of the Panthers.

Return specialist joins Panthers

"I joined the Panthers Wrocław because it is an excellently run organization. I feel that the coaching staff here will enable me and our whole team to reach an even higher level. There is a real winning culture here. I am excited to be part of a fast-growing and strong team. Expect many strong and spectacular plays from us in the upcoming season. Our goal is to reach the top!" Devan Burrell commented on his transfer from the Milano Seamen, where he played an exceptional role in 2023.

As a return specialist, the 28-year-old returned kicks for 1820 yards and five touchdowns, playing also as a defensive back for the Leipzig Kings before the team had to withdraw from competition. The Panthers get a playmaker.
