5x All-Pro DL-Kristopher Ford returns for 2022

The Erie Express are pleased to announce the return of 5x All-Pro DL-Kristopher Ford (Portland, HS) for the 2022 season. Kris begins his second season with the Express and returns as one of our starters on the defensive line. Last season Kris played a major role in our finishing the season undefeated and GDFL National Champions. Kris also helped us kick off the 2022 season with a victory in the USA Bowl Summer Division National Championship Game.  

This past season Kris recorded 35 total tackles including a team high 16 sacks. Ford finished the regular season ranked 2nd in the GDFL with 12 sacks then recorded 4 more during the playoffs to end up leading the league. Kris added 19 tackles for loss for -113yds of offense, recorded 2 fumble recoveries and 1 caused fumble. For his efforts he earned GDFL All-Pro accolades as well as being named Express Defensive Newcomer of the Year. 

Ford is a graduate of Portland High School (CT) and is originally from Brooklyn, NY. Kris now calls Warren, OH home and is no stranger to this level of football. Ford is an 8yr veteran having played for the Mahoning Valley Tigers, Giants and Scourge.

 Kristopher has been selected All-Pro 4x and has a league title under his belt. The DAY AFTER surgery, Kris helped lead the Ohio Silverbacks to the PAFL T2 Championship and an eventual appearance in a National Bowl Game. 

"Kris has led his past two teams to championships. We aren't sure if it is his spin move or his sheer drive to make the play on every down but whatever it is it's working and we like it. Kris has an amazing personality, enjoys the game and has the attitude and leadership skills to make sure those around him are enjoying themselves as well. A true leader on and off the field. We are blessed to have him back on board with us and are certain he will have another amazing season"-Director of Operations Paul Pennington.
