The final roster moves come after receiver Kenny Stafford and linebacker Kevin Brown II, also CFL veterans, were let go earlier.
Lemon signed a one-year contract with Edmonton in February. The six-foot-two, 248-pound defensive lineman has played nine CFL seasons, registering 70 career sacks and 22 forced fumbles over 107 regular-season games.
Lemon is a two-time Grey Cup champion with Calgary (2014) and Toronto (2017).
The six-foot-two, 230-pound Diggs, a linebacker, was Edmonton s outstanding rookie nominee in 2019 after recording 73 tackles, 11 special-teams tackles, one interception and two sacks.
The six-foot-seven, 320-pound Coleman was in his second stint with Edmonton. The towering offensive lineman had played for the franchise from 2013-16 before joining the Saskatchewan Roughriders (2016-19).

Matt Milano always wanted to stay with the Buffalo Bills.
Before the 2020 season even started, the linebacker then in the final year of his rookie year stated that he wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. Of course, that move became trickier on the Bills’ side of things when it was announced that the 2021 salary cap would drop. What once seemed like a sure thing was put into doubt with Milano looking to be the best linebacker available on the market.
