Dontez Ford racks up 182 yards with San Diego Fleet

Former Pitt wide receiver Dontez Ford put on his best performance of the season with the San Diego Fleet of the AAF over the weekend, as he amassed 182 yards on three catches in an attempt to keep his team afloat in a 32-29 loss to the Birmingham Iron.

Ford’s 182-yard total was the second-highest receiving yard total in the AAF this season, as Charles Johnson of the Orlando Apollos was able to rack up 192 yards against the San Antonio Commanders on Feb. 17. The former Panther came up with plays of 40 yards, 72 yards and 70 yards and only failed to reel in one ball on four targets during Sunday's game.
