Trevardo Williams, who holds UConn's career record with 30 1/2 quarterback sacks, was signed by the Canadian Football League's Toronto Argonauts on Monday

The former Bridgeport Central High School star was taken by the Houston Texans in the fourth round of the 2013 NFL draft (the fourth UConn defensive player selected that year).

Williams had 3 1/2 sacks in four preseason games during the 2013 season but injuries prevented him from playing in a regular-season game with the Texans. He was signed and released by the Arizona Cardinals and then made his regular-season debut with the Washington Redskins when he had five tackles in the final three regular-season games in the 2014 season.
