The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have re-signed American kicker Sergio Castillo and Australian punter Jamieson Sheahan, the CFL club announced Monday.<\/p>\n
Castillo’s extension is for two years, while Sheahan re-signed for one year. Both players were scheduled to become free agents in February.<\/p>\n
The 35-year-old Castillo has been the Blue Bombers’ kicker for the past three seasons in his third stint with the club.<\/p>\n
He made 48 field goals last season, including a CFL record-tying 63-yard kick in a loss to Calgary in August.<\/p>\n
Castillo, who also played for the Bombers in 2015 and 2021, has appeared in 61 games for the Bombers and is fourth in franchise scoring with 639 points.<\/p>\n
The kicker from La Joya, Texas, won a Grey Cup with the Bombers in 2021 and was a league all-star with the B.C. Lions in 2019. He has also kicked for Ottawa, Hamilton and Edmonton.<\/p>\n
Sheahan finished 2025 with a punting average of 47.8 yards on 94 punts and a net average of 38.4 yards.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His 47.8-yard average was the second-highest in Blue Bombers history to Jon Ryan\u2019s 50.6 average in 2005.<\/p>\n
Sheahan is entering his fourth season with Winnipeg after he was selected eighth overall in the CFL\u2019s 2023 Global Draft.<\/p>\n
