Marcus Epps signs first-team contract

Former University of South Florida winger Marcus Epps has signed a first team contract with the Philadelphia Union, becoming the second member of the club’s 2017 SuperDraft class to sign with the organization.

“Marcus impressed us over his collegiate career and has continued to show his abilities throughout this preseason,” Union Sporting Director Earnie Stewart said in a news release. “We are excited to see what he will bring to our club in years to come.”

The Union traded their 42nd pick and $50,000 of Allocation Money in 2018 to move up in the draft order and select the 22-year-old Jackson, Mississippi native in the MLS SuperDraft last month.
