WINNIPEG — Fresh on the heels of a trade for defensive end Fred Perry, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers have announced another deal giving them Winnipeg-born linebacker Neil Ternovatsky and defensive back Lenny Walls.
The Bombers sent defensive back Kelly Malveaux to the Edmonton Eskimos for Perry and then immediately backfilled their secondary by obtaining Walls and Ternovatsky from the Calgary Stampeders.
The Blue Bombers have given Calgary a conditional draft pick in exchange for the two defenders.
Walls signed with the Stamps late last season and had nine tackles and one interception against Saskatchewan in his top performance. Walls finished the year with 23 tackles before missing the playoffs with an eye injury.
Ternovatsky saw action in nine regular season games with Calgary last year making one defensive tackle and five special teams tackles.
Earlier Bombers head coach Mike Kelly praised the play of Perry.
"Last season in Edmonton, I watched (Perry) put great effort into his play," said Kelly.
"Over the last three seasons Cam Wake, Gavin Walls, and Fred Perry have been at the top of the quarterback sacks category in the CFL. Wake is now playing in the NFL and the other two are playing in Blue and Gold."
The nine-year veteran Malveaux had 63 tackles, two interceptions and a sack for the Bombers last season.
Perry, also a nine-year vet, appeared in seven games with the Esks last year registering just one sack and 17 tackles.
Perry has collected 57 sacks and 345 tackles in 96 career regular season games, eight career playoff games. Perry was a Grey Cup winner with the Saskatchewan Roughriders in 2007.
