WINNIPEG --
With CFL free agency opening Tuesday, the general manager of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Kyle Walters, is warning fans not to expect a frenzy.
“It’s going to be pretty quiet for us tomorrow,” Walters told reporters over a conference call, Monday.
“In free agency past, we’d be in my office working the phones with two or three phones on the go trying to find guys, follow along and try to fill holes in your roster and spending and adding and all that sort of stuff.”
COVID-19 continues to cast a lot of uncertainty over the league and the possibility of a season this summer. However Walters has been busy restructuring and extending contracts to retain a number of key players over the past few weeks, like quarterback Zach Collaros, linebacker Adam Bighill along with running back and 2019 Grey Cup MVP Andrew Harris, to name a few.
