CALGARY, Alberta - Wide receiver Marquay McDaniel, 28, a former Hampton University standout, caught four passes for 85 yards last Thursday night for the Canadian Football League's Calgary Stampeders (1-2), though they lost 33-32 to the Montreal Alouettes.
McDaniel, a 5-foot-10, 205-pounder who grew up in Virginia Beach, is in his fourth year in the CFL. He spent his first three seasons with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
In 2009, he caught 57 passes for 688 yards and three touchdowns. In '10, he increased his totals to 76 receptions for 994 yards and seven TDs, boosting his average per catch by a full yard to 13.1.
