The Tucson Sugar Skulls continued to build its roster for the 2021 Indoor Football League season on Tuesday and re-signed defensive lineman Robert Metz. 

The 6-foot-4-inch, 240-pound Metz, a Tucson native and Canyon del Oro High School product, will enter his third year with the Sugar Skulls. In the Sugar Skulls' inaugural season in 2019, Metz recorded 21 tackles, including 13 solo stops. 

Metz was signed to the Sugar Skulls this year until the season was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Tucson signed its first three prospects for '21 training camp last week, and signed kicker Daniel Bowen (St. Bonaventure), Paul Harris (Hawaii) and Marquise Irvin (Mercer).
