A former Baylor University football player has signed with an indoor football team. 

Shawn Oakman, who is accused of sexually assaulting a woman he met at a bar in April 2016, was indicted on charges in July. 

Oakman appeared on the roster for the Bismarck Bucks, a team based in Bismarck, ND. The team's first game of the season is Friday, March 9. 

Oakman was arrested in April 2016 after a woman came forward saying that Oakman had assaulted her. Oakman's lawyers said that the sex was consensual. 

Oakman's trial has not been set at this time.
