Paris Lights Sign Homegrown Receiver Florian Larose for the 2027 Season
The Paris Lights have made their first signing ahead of the 2027 AFLE season. Florian Larose, one of the most consistent performers in the club’s inaugural campaign, returns for a second year in Paris.
A Familiar Face Coming Back
Larose was already part of the Paris Lights in 2026, where he made his mark with big plays and touchdowns throughout the season. His return means the Lights keep one of their most reliable offensive weapons and avoid having to rebuild that connection from scratch ahead of a season where consistency will be key.
A Versatile Weapon
At 27 years old and standing 193 centimetres tall at 110 kilograms, Larose has the physical profile to play both tight end and wide receiver, giving the Paris offense genuine flexibility in how they deploy him. In the 2026 season he recorded 37 receptions for 529 receiving yards and six touchdowns, averaging 14.3 yards per reception and ranking ninth in the entire league in that category.
An Early Statement of Intent
By locking in Larose early, the Paris Lights signal that they know what they have in him. He was one of the most consistent contributors in their first AFLE season, and securing him before the roster-building period heats up is exactly the kind of decisive move that sets a strong foundation for 2027.
