(Rochester, NY)… Rochester Knighthawks President and General Manager Dan Carey announced Wednesday that forward Brad McCulley was moved to the active roster from the injured reserve list.
“It feels amazing. I’m very excited to get back with the group, get going, and contribute in any way I can to help the team,” said McCulley. “We have a really special group of guys here, and I couldn’t be more excited for the opportunity to battle with this team.”
The first-place Knighthawks (2-0) battle the Colorado Mammoth Saturday at 9 p.m. at Ball Arena. Fans can catch all the action on ESPN+ and NLL+.
Rochester re-signed McCulley to a two-year deal on Oct. 29. He appeared in the team’s first preseason contest before going on the IR.

A National Lacrosse League champion, he was originally selected ninth overall by the Buffalo Bandits in the 2020 NLL Entry Draft.
In his NLL career, McCulley has played in 42 games, notching 23 goals, 39 assists, and 71 loose-ball recoveries. In the 2023 Playoffs, he appeared in six games for the Bandits, posting three goals and three assists en route to a championship.
This summer, McCulley played under Knighthawks head coach Mike Hasen with the second-place Peterborough Lakers (Major Series Lacrosse). With the Lakers, he collected 22 goals and 25 assists for 47 points and added five goals and eight assists in nine playoff games.
