Shock bring in Thompkins

The Spokane Shock acquired wide receiver Brandon Thompkins from Utah on Thursday in exchange for defensive back Josh Ferguson and defensive lineman Julian Miller.

Thompkins had 76 receptions – 26 for touchdowns – last season with Spokane. In four games this AFL season with Utah, he had 27 catches for 345 yards.

The addition of Thompkins gives the Shock options for Saturday’s home game against Orlando. Shock receiver Kamar Jorden has a tryout at the Indianapolis Colts rookie minicamp this weekend.

Spokane also signed former Shock defensive lineman Jon Williams and defensive back Antareis Bryan.
