Storm Secures Elite Wide Receiver Kentrez Bell
The Indoor Football League’s Sioux Falls Storm is set to fortify its aerial attack, confirming the signing of Kentrez Bell for the 2024 season. The acquisition of Bell, who topped the IFL receiving charts last season, signals the Storm’s ambition to enhance their offensive prowess.
Bell’s distinction as the solo receiver to surpass 1,000 yards last season places him among the league’s elite. His consistent performance is illustrated by his impressive average of 72.8 receiving yards per game and the fact that he notched up at least one touchdown in nearly 90% of the regular-season games.
Consistency and Dynamism Define Bell’s Play
Coach Andre Fields praises Bell’s impactful play and highlights his steadfast attitude that underpins his league-leading stats in key receiving metrics. Bell’s anticipated Storm debut has both coach and fans eager to witness the new dynamism he’s poised to bring to the field.
An alumnus of Northwestern Oklahoma State University, Bell has showcased his talents across the IFL. His tenure with the San Diego Strikeforce was marked by a standout performance against the Duke City Gladiators, where he demonstrated his scoring ability and helped cement his reputation within the league.
Formidable Duo Expected to Shine in 2024
Bell, joining forces with Storm’s own Donnie Corley Jr., is expected to deliver a formidable offensive threat that could upset opposing defenses. Together, the duo amassed nearly 2,000 receiving yards and 45 touchdowns in the last season, setting the stage for an explosive partnership.
Scheduled to commence their battle in the 2024 season on March 22, the Storm brace for their opening clash with the Quad City Steamwheelers. The Storm’s loyal fanbase will have the first opportunity to cheer their reinforced squad at the home opener in April against the Tulsa Oilers.
