Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 31/08/2016 (3326 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers announced Wednesday morning the addition of non-import offensive lineman Alex McKay to the practice roster.
McKay, 25, a Winnipeg native and University of Manitoba product, played four seasons with the Bisons, starting all 32 regular season games – and seven playoff games – during his collegiate career.
Listed at 6-5, 300 pounds, McKay was selected in the sixth round – 52nd overall – by the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the 2016 CFL Draft but was released by the team on July 20.
To make room for McKay, the Bombers have released import receiver Kris Adams. Adams played in two games this season for Winnipeg, recording three catches for 41 yards.
