The six-foot-one, 218-pound American led the CFL in receiving yards (1,441) and touchdown catches (16).

Schoen registered 70 receptions in his first CFL campaign, averaging a sparkling 20.6 yards per catch.

Schoen and the Bombers will finish their season Sunday facing the Toronto Argonauts in the Grey Cup game at Mosaic Stadium.

Winnipeg will be chasing a third straight championship.

Tyson Philpot of the Montreal Alouettes was the finalist.
