On Friday, the United Football League’s Hartford Colonials announced the signing of former University of Hawaii star quarterback Colt Brennan. Brennan joins a Hartford QB depth chart that includes Josh McCown and UFL No. 1 overall pick Jerrod Johnson, a rookie from Texas A&M.

Last we heard from Brennan, he was being released from a Hawaii hospital after avoiding serious injury in a scary car accident.

Brennan was a sixth-round pick by the Redskins in 2008. He showed some promise in preseason games with Washington, but was waived when the Shanahans acquired John Beck from the Ravens last August. Brennan resurfaced briefly with the Raiders, but was let go at final cuts.

The Colonials are coached by two-time PFT Live guest Jerry Glanville.
