For the first time since 2014, back-to-back German Football League champions, the Schwäbisch Hall Unicorns, will be playing with a different quarterback with the signing of Jadrian Clark (Weber State).

Clark replaces long-time starter, Marco Ehrenfried, who announced his retirement from football.

As the quarterback for the Braunschweig New Yorker Lions in 2018, the 24 year old Clark, 6’3″, 225 lb from Lakeland, Florida, guided the Lions to the German Football League semifinals in 2018, throwing for 3,627 yards and 45 touchdowns, good for fourth in the league. He first played in Germany the year before when he helped the Kirchdorf Wildcats win the GFL 2 title, and then led them to promotion to the German Football League. He threw for 3,206 yards and 46 touchdowns in 12 regular season games with a 63.3% completion average.

A three year starter for the Weber State Wildcats (NCAA Div. I, FCS), Clark finished his career as one of the top quarterbacks in the school’s history. He ended his career third in Weber State history in career total offense with 6,568 yards. He also finished his career ranked fourth in career passing with 5,810 yards. He threw for 40 career touchdowns and rushed for 758 yards and five more touchdowns. The 758 rushing yards is the second most by a WSU quarterback. In 2016, he led the Wildcats into the FCS playoffs.

Unicorns head coach Jordan Neuman:

“I am very confident that with Jadrian we have found the right man for the job behind the center. We watched a lot of film footage and talked a lot with Jadrian, but also with former coaches and teammates. When we collected all the information, it was clear to us that Jadrian is the player we were looking for.”
