VANCOUVER – Lucky Whitehead is staying put.

The American receiver signed a contract extension Monday with the B.C. Lions. He was slated to become a free agent next month.

“I’m grateful for the opportunity to be back and to help this squad get to the next level,” Whitehead said in a statement. “We have some pieces already in place to contend year in and year out and I can’t wait to see what else this offseason brings.”
