Gerod Holliman

He played college football for the Louisville Cardinals, winning the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back and earning unanimous All-American honors in 2014.

[1] Holliman has also been a member of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Columbus Lions, High Country Grizzlies, Louisville Xtreme and Bismarck Bucks.

He was considered one of the hardest hitters in the state of Florida, and was ranked 49th on ESPN.com's Top 150 and was viewed as the third-ranked safety.

Described as a safety prospect who seems to always be around the ball, great at diagnosing the run plays versus passes and quick to come up and hit a running back, he originally committed to the University of Mississippi to play college football, but changed it to the University of Louisville.

[6] As a true freshman at Louisville in 2012, Holliman played in only three games due to a shoulder injury.

[17] On August 15, 2017, Holliman signed with the Columbus Lions of the National Arena League for the 2018 season.
