LUBBOCK, Texas - The Texas Tech football program had two former Red Raiders - Bradley Marquez and V.J. Fehoko - come to terms on NFL free agent deals Saturday night.
Marquez, a senior wide receiver from Odessa, signed with the St. Louis Rams while Fehoko, a senior linebacker from Honolulu, Hawaii, agreed to become a Cleveland Brown not long after the 2015 NFL Draft concluded.
Thanking the man upstairs for giving me an opportunity to continue my football career at the next level. @STLouisRams #RamsNation

Marquez led the Red Raiders in receiving this past season, catching 65 passes for 821 yards and 10 touchdowns. His 10 touchdown receptions led the Big 12 and ranked 12th nationally. He was the only Big 12 wide receiver to snag three touchdown passes in two different games.
Marquez, who ended his Tech career with 155 receptions for 1,866 yards and 17 touchdowns, will join a familiar face in St. Louis as former Red Raider defensive back Cody Davis just completed his second season with the organization.
Fehoko collected 66 tackles in his one season as a Red Raider after transferring from Utah where he played from 2011-13. Fehoko ended the 2014 season ranked fifth on the team in tackles.
Several other Red Raiders could potentially sign free-agent contracts heading into NFL training camps.
Beyond blessed to have the opportunity to play ball again. Thank you Lord! You have never forsaken... https://t.co/hso372hn8q
