Proven experience at European level

Schürmann already brings three years of experience at a high level in European football. Over the course of 30 games, he recorded 93 tackles, 1.5 sacks, 9.5 tackles for loss, one pass breakup, three forced fumbles, and one fumble return.

His numbers show his ability to play aggressively and make impact plays in key moments.

Leadership and stability for the defense

During his previous seasons, Schürmann played for the Helvetic Mercenaries as well as Rhein Fire. Competing in different systems has helped him develop into a versatile and disciplined linebacker.

The Rams expect him to become a cornerstone of their defense and a leader on the field.

A return to Switzerland

By joining the Alpine Rams, Schürmann returns to his sporting home in Switzerland. He is motivated to help build the new franchise and contribute to a successful start in its first season.

With Timothy Schürmann on the roster, the Rams add strength, experience, and local identity to their defensive unit.
