The Georgia University product didn’t miss a game while playing college football for the Bulldogs. In his final two seasons, he recorded 156 tackles, three forced fumbles and two interceptions. As a senior, he earned All-SEC honours and was named First-Team All-American.
At 6-feet, 4-inches tall, Unertl is now the tallest DB in the Argos’ secondary. A four-year letter winner at the University of Wisonsin-La Crosse, Unertl led NFL Europa in interceptions and won a World Bowl championship with the Frankfurt Galaxy in 2003. Three years later, he was MVP of the AFL’s Chicago Rush, leading the team in tackles, interceptions and pass knock downs, and was crowned an Arena Bowl champion in 2007. The former All-Arena standout has also been on training camp rosters with the NFL’s Green Bay Packers and Baltimore Ravens, been a member of the AFL’s Columbus Destroyers and Las Vegas Gladiators and was recently a member of the UFL’s California Redwoods.
