Arizona Rattlers

Josh Lanier will rejoin the team for his second season with the Rattlers and in the IFL for the 2023 season.

The rookie receiver appeared in one game for the team. He made the most of the one reception he caught, which was for a 22-yard touchdown against the Vegas Knight Hawks in the regular season finale on July 10th.

After gaining a year of experience in the Rattlers' system he will look to contribute to what figures to be a strong group of wide receivers.

The Alabama native played collegiate football at the University of Alabama, the University of North Alabama, and Jackson State University as a wide receiver and member of special teams.

In high school, Lanier played quarterback, receiver, halfback, cornerback, and safety and returned kickoffs and punts at Tuscaloosa Academy under head coach Robert Johnson. He was named the best receiver and best defensive back as a senior, receiving the captain's award, and was also an East All-Star and All-State selection.
