After a disappointing season, the Ottawa Redblacks are looking for a new head coach.
The Redblacks have fired Bob Dyce, the CFL club announced Saturday.
Ottawa finished a league-worst 4-14 this season, after going 9-8-1 and making the playoffs last year.
The Winnipeg-born Dyce, 59, was named the full-time coach of the Redblacks in December 2022 after serving as interim coach for four games that season following the firing of Paul LaPolice. Dyce was Ottawa’s special teams co-ordinator from 2016 to 2022, helping the team win its first and only Grey Cup in his first year.
The Redblacks went 4-14 in Dyce’s first full season before making big strides in 2024 after acquiring quarterback Dru Brown’s rights in a trade with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
But Brown was hampered by injuries in 2025, and the Redblacks could never find much rhythm.
Dyce, who served as interim coach of the Saskatchewan Roughriders for nine games in 2015, is a Canadian football coaching lifer. The former Manitoba Bisons receiver got his start in university and junior ball in Winnipeg before joining the Blue Bombers staff in 2003.
