CALGARY \u2014 The Calgary Stampeders have re-signed Canadian receiver Clark Barnes, the CFL team announced Monday.<\/p>\n

Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Barnes was eligible to become a free agent on Feb. 10.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old from Brampton, Ont., had a career-high 601 receiving yards with two touchdowns in 14 regular-season games last season.<\/p>\n

He added four catches for 73 yards and a touchdown in Calgary’s 33-30 loss to B.C. in the West semifinal.<\/p>\n

The University of Guelph alumnus has played 39 games with Calgary over three seasons, accumulating 104 career catches for 1,425 yards and seven touchdowns.<\/p>\n

He was a third-round selection by the Stampeders in the 2023 CFL draft.<\/p>\n

“Clark has made steady progress over the course of his young career and is a dangerous deep threat for our offence,” Stampeders general manager and head coach Dave Dickenson said in a release. “With three seasons of experience under his belt, we look forward to continued development and to see him to raise his play to an even higher level in 2026.”<\/p>\n
