OTTAWA \u2013 The Ottawa Redblacks have hired Ryan Dinwiddie as their new head coach and general manager.<\/p>\n

Dinwiddie, who led the Toronto Argonauts to two Grey Cup titles over five seasons, takes over coaching duties from Bob Dyce, who was relieved of his duties after Ottawa posted a 4-14 record this season to miss the CFL playoffs.<\/p>\n

Dinwiddie also assumes the GM title, with Shawn Burke \u2014 who was hired in that capacity in December 2021 \u2014 being promoted to vice-president of football operations with the club.<\/p>\n
