Call of Duty Veteran Nameless Announces He's A Non-Restricted Free Agent
By Ford James ·
He didn't play at Seattle, opting to sit behind the analyst desk instead, but he's now tweeted out that he's a free agent - without any restrictions. Could we see him playing again?
Anthony ‘Nameless’ Wheeler is a name that has been around in competitive Call of Duty for years. He started competing way back on Modern Warfare, and hasn’t missed a single iteration since then, playing for organisations like FaZe, EnVy, Curse, and most recently, Evil Geniuses. He’d been with EG since late 2016, and remained with them throughout the entirety of Infinite Warfare, before sticking with them as they brought in and entirely new roster around him for WWII. Things haven’t gone so smoothly returning to boots on the ground gameplay however, and Nameless has officially been released by Evil Geniuses, meaning he is now a free agent with no restrictions.
No longer a restricted F/A. Currently an actual free agent so if any sponsors or organizations have business inquiries or opportunities the email is - ant_name@outlook.com or DM

I meant that as business opportunities. I’m not looking for a team bc I won’t play unless it’s in the league which isn’t possible at this point.

That doesn’t necessarily mean he’s looking for a new team, he says, although it is a possibility. As you can see in the tweets above, he’s only looking to compete again if he can find a spot on a team within the league, but he doesn’t believe it’s possible at this point. It’s more likely that he’ll look for other roles within Call of Duty and MLG, perhaps as a coach, or doing more work on the analyst desk at future events like MLG Anaheim in June.
Hopefully we’ll see him return to playing soon, but it may well be on Black Ops IIII as it looks like his time as a Call of Duty WWII player is now over. Elsewhere in Call of Duty news, it’s looking like the Nintendo Switch will have a Black Ops IIII port this November, the first Nintendo platform to feature a Call of Duty game since Ghosts was on the WiiU. There’s also rumors aplenty that Treyarch are going to forego a single player campaign in favor of a battle royale mode, since that is the hot genre right now thanks to Fortnite and PUBG.
