And while the Bombers have not hired anyone else for that position, what they have done is very telling. The Bombers have managed to re-sign Brady Oliveira<\/a> (a guy who was not impressed in the least in the way that he was utilized in 2025). And now the Bombers have resigned Demski to a 2 year deal.<\/p>\n Demski Demski, would end the 2025 season with the 11th most receiving yards, and the 8th most receiving touchdowns. <\/p>\n About Demski, Ed Tait reports<\/a>, \u201c\u201cEarly on in my career, I was always athletic enough and being able to be a playmaker and all that good stuff, but I never was a holistic pro,\u201d he said Friday in a conference call with local media. \u201cBeing in the film room, being in the weight room, taking care of my body, getting extra treatment, all that good stuff.<\/p>\n \u201cHonestly, until I came to Winnipeg and kind of saw how everyone else was doing it in front of me, to see them get into their routines and see how they handled their bodies and kind of expanded their football IQ, they definitely led the way for me for that. I followed the path and it\u2019s brought me here.<\/p>\n \u201cTo me, just to see the success that I\u2019ve had, the relationship with Zach (Collaros), and the relationship with the different coaches that have been around me and everybody giving me their wisdom and whatnot I feel like I can even take my game to a higher level. I\u2019m really excited about that.\u201d<\/p>\n Demski\u2019s 2025 season saw him finish with 67 receptions for 1,001 yards and seven touchdowns in 16 regular-season games, earning him a spot on the CFL West Division All-Star Team for a fifth straight year. In the process, he moved into seventh place on the club\u2019s all-time receiving yardage list and now sits at 5,560 as a Blue Bomber \u2013 trailing only Milt Stegall (15,153), James Murphy (9,036), Joe Poplawski (8,341), Terrence Edwards (7,200), Rick House (6,266) and Perry Tuttle (5.817). And of that total as a Blue Bomber, 3,037 yards have come over the last three years, along with 19 touchdowns.\u201d<\/p>\n Offensive Woes New Offensive Coordinator? And while Tait did not elaborate on what the changes were that are coming, in context of the whole article, it sure sounds like changes at offensive coordinator.<\/p>\n
Demski is no longer a young man (at least in terms of a players\u2019 age). At 32 years of age, Nic Demski still has it. On September 9th I wrote,<\/a> \u201cMaybe it looks good that Demski is in the top 10 in both categories (receiving yards and recieving touchdowns)\u2026but that should actually be troubling as he is the\u00a0only\u00a0Bomber player in the top 10. Where are the big name receivers that the Bomber have? To find the next Bomber in receiving yards you have to go all the way to the 17th spot to find Wheatfall, and then to the 34th spot to find Oliveira!\u201d<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Demski-1024x510.jpg\" "\\"Demski")
<\/p>\n
But still troubling for the Bombers is that you have to go all the way to the 30th spot to find their next leading receiver, Wheatfall (which means the Bombers defence got worse since early September when Wheatfall was in 17th spot). Sure Wheatfall played 16 games, not 18\u2026but many of the players<\/a> ahead of Wheatfall played as many or less games than he did. That should not be a surprise as the Bombers finished last in passing yards and seventh in scoring.<\/p>\n
While it could be quickly overlooked, in Ed Tait\u2019s artcile he said<\/a>, \u201cBut changes are coming and with quarterback Zach Collaros under contract for 2026 and teammates like Brady Oliveira and Pokey Wilson having recently signed extensions as well \u2014 along with head coach Mike O\u2019Shea and GM Kyle Walters \u2014 that frustration is slowly morphing into excitement already for next season.\u201d<\/p>\n
