His standout performance in 2021 earned him the title of league passing leader and the Superserien Most Valuable Player award.

Experience in Europe
Before his successful tenure in Sweden, Vasey played in the German Football League, starting with the Cologne Crocodiles as a receiver in 2017, where he caught 43 passes for 633 yards and six touchdowns.
