Former Hampton University quarterback David Legree has signed an undrafted free agent contract with the Kansas City Chiefs, the New York Daily News today reports.

Legree completed 61% of his passes during his senior season at Hampton, throwing 10 touchdowns and four interceptions. He averaged 7.1 yards per attempt while leading the Pirates to a 7-4 season.

Salvato said it is “definitely rare” to have a quarterback out of New York City sign an NFL contract. But Legree has the confidence of his old coach.

“I think he’ll be fine because he’s a student of the game,” Salvato said. “He has a great work ethic.” (NY Daily News)
