The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are reportedly landing one of the biggest prizes \u2014 both literally and figuratively \u2014 available in the Canadian Football League\u2019s free agent market.<\/p>\n

Taylor Allen of The Winnipeg Free Press is reporting<\/a> the Blue Bombers have agreed in terms on a two-year contract with mammoth offensive tackle Jarell Broxton, who was a CFL All-Star last season with the B.C. Lions and has been voted the club\u2019s top offensive lineman in each of the last three years (2023-25).<\/p>\n

FYI, the CFL\u2019s negotiating window opened Sunday at 11 a.m. allowing teams and pending free agents around the league to negotiate, with any new agreements not to be officially announced until February 10th when the market opens.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now 32, Broxton (6-5, 325; Baylor University) would be joining the Blue Bombers this year for his sixth season in the CFL after spending the last five years on the West Coast and instantly upgrades an already veteran group that features future hall of famer Stanley Bryant and three-time CFL All-Star Pat Neufeld along with veteran guard\/centre Tui Eli, mammoth left guard Gabe Wallace and 2025 CFL Draft picks Ethan Vibert and Iwinosa Uwubanmwen and two veteran Americans in Kendall Randolph, who started every game at right tackle last year, and versatile guard\/tackle Micah Vanterpool.<\/p>\n

The club has also signed nine other American offensive linemen for training camp, which opens in May.<\/p>\n

Broxton started at left tackle for the Lions for 16 regular season games the Western Semi-Final and Western Final last year and has made 51 starts for the Lions since joining the club in 2021. Interestingly, he had first signed in the CFL with the Blue Bombers in February of 2020 but did not join the club after the cancellation of the season due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are reportedly landing one of the biggest prizes \u2014 both literally and figuratively \u2014…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":447605,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[437],"tags":[49,48,521,522,520,82],"class_list":["post-447604","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cfl","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-canadian-football-league","tag-canadianfootballleague","tag-cfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/447604","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=447604"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/447604\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/447605"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=447604"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=447604"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=447604"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
