6'4 210lbs

Aakiel Greer is a 6-4 210lbs wide receiver. The son of Dewayne and Lakeisha Edwards, Aakiel grew up in Kosciusko, Mississippi—a town of just over 7,000 people about an hour north of Jackson, Mississippi. 

Last season, Greer found his home right here in Everett with the Wolfpack. He played in 11 games in 2024, where he caught 24 passes for 247 yards, finding the end zone three times. He returns for his second season with the team in 2025. Greer is no stranger to Arena Football. In 2023, Aakiel played for the Wichita Regulators. He appeared in seven games with 22 catches for 303 yards. Greer recorded six touchdown catches for the Regulators. 

Aakiel played his college ball at Saint Augustine’s University, an HBCU in Raleigh, North Carolina. Greer made his mark at the school, setting several school records and, most memorably, making a leaping catch in 2019 for the Falcons over eventual NFL Draft pick Joshua Williams to set up the game-winning field goal for the upset victory against the defending CIAA Southern Division champions in Fayetteville State. During his college career, he was named twice to the All-CIAA team and a 2019 SSPS second-team All-American. 

Greer, who ran a 4.51 40-yard dash with a 38-inch vertical, was invited to the Las Vegas Raiders Mini Camp in 2022. After spending time in Mini Camp with the Raiders, he received interest from the Minnesota Vikings, Philadelphia Eagles, and Washington Commanders of the NFL. He also received interest from the CFL’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Calgary Stampede. This all led to an opportunity to sign with the Las Vegas Nighthawks before signing with the Regulators.
