Biography

Ochs played high school football at Fairview High School in Boulder, Colorado, where he earned All-American Honors. He began his college career with the Colorado Buffaloes in 2000. At the time, Ochs was considered one of the top young QB's in Division I college football. After he was sidelined due to a string of concussions, Ochs decided to transfer to the University of Montana and play for the Division I-AA Montana Grizzlies. In his senior season of 2004, Ochs rated among the top I-AA quarterbacks and led the Grizzlies to the national title game.

Going into 2005, Ochs was tabbed as a borderline draft pick. He went undrafted, however, in the 2005 NFL Draft. Ochs signed on to play with the San Diego Chargers soon after the draft but was cut on August 25, 2005, before the regular season began.

Ochs tried out in Buffalo during the NFL regular season but did not get an offer to sign with the team. He was also sought out by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers of the CFL, but held out for another NFL opportunity. Eventually, the Bills offered Ochs a 2-year contract after the season ended on January 9, 2006 as the team's 3rd-string QB. The Bills allocated Ochs to the Frankfurt Galaxy in NFL Europa on January 19, 2006. On April 22, 2006 he got his first start for the Galaxy, leading Frankfurt to a 18-17 comeback win over Berlin.

Ochs led Frankfurt to a 7-3 record and a World Bowl title in 2006.

Ochs suffered an injury in May 2006 and is currently an assistant coach on offense for the University of Montana.
