Connor Halliday signs UDFA contract with Washington

Connor Halliday will join Vince Mayle and Xavier Cooper as WSU Cougars hoping to make an NFL roster in 2015, as one of the best quarterbacks in the history of the school has signed as an undrafted free agent with the NFL team in Washington, D.C.

For Halliday, the contract is the culmination of months of hard work and rehab following a gruesome leg injury sustained in late a late October game against USC. Halliday was sacked by Leonard Williams, who rolled over his leg, breaking it. Going into the game, the WSU senior quarterback was on pace to break records and lead the country in various categories, including passing yards, total offense, points and attempts.
