Changes in the roster. Lee Pitts joins Panthers Wrocław

After three rounds of the European League of Football, significant changes have occurred in the roster of Panthers Wrocław. The team bid farewell to French running back Norman Ossohou, while Artevius Smith, a defensive back from the United States, has been placed on the injured list. His spot in the roster will be taken by his compatriot, Lee Pitts.

The new player will strengthen the team's third-line defense for Panthers Wrocław. Lee Pitts stands at 180 cm, weighs 91 kg, and has played at the University of Sioux Falls. He was one of the most outstanding players at the university.

– I decided to join Panthers Wrocław because they have a great coaching staff with years of experience through multiple levels of football. My goal for this season is to build on the success that the team has had thus far. I want to help the Panthers win in any way that I can. I’d like to say I’m excited to meet the polish fans and that I’m going to do everything in my power to contribute to the success of this franchise – says Lee Pitts himself.

Lee Pitts comes from a family with great sports traditions. His brother, Shea Pitts, plays as a linebacker at UCLA. His grandfather, Elijah Pitts, was a running back for the Green Bay Packers under the legendary Vince Lombardi in the first-ever Super Bowl in history. He later became a coach for the Buffalo Bills, appearing in the Super Bowl four times. Ron Pitts, Lee's father, was also a player for the Green Bay Packers and the Buffalo Bills.

We will see the newest player of Panthers Wrocław in action during the game against Fehervar Enthroners, which will take place on June 24th at the Olympic Stadium. Tickets for this game can be purchased on the Ticketmaster website. The duel between representatives of Poland and Hungary can also be watched on Polsat Sport Extra or Gamepass starting from 4:55 PM.
