So yes I think the reserve list travels with the team. It does add some additional cost but doesn't the team charter a plane? Players probably double up in hotels I'd guess.
The other question I posed was do the 2 reserve players get changed game to game to adjust for those that might need to a GTD? If so where do those moved from the reserve go?
There's always a certain amount of rotation between AR to IR to PR.

How about away games? AR guys would fly out and need a hotel room. Reserve guys...? Will the reserve fly out? I would assume if no one is GTD then the answer is "no"?
So there's one other reason the league would allow +2 reserve instead of +2 AR.
(And I'm just playing devil's advocate and trying to figure it out too. I'm with many here that +2 AR would be nothing but a good thing for us fans.)

by 3Down Staff May 2, 2026
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have signed three American defensive linemen, including Eric Black, Antoineo Harris, and David Reese.
Black has had CFL stints with the Edmonton Elks, Saskatchewan Roughriders, and Ottawa Redblacks since 2024. The six-foot-four, 247-pound defender dressed for two regular-season games, both with the Elks, and recorded four defensive tackles and two special teams tackles.
The native of Rochester, N.Y. played collegiately at the University at Buffalo and Stony Brook University.
Harris finished his collegiate career at the University of Connecticut in 2025, recording 30 total tackles, three tackles for loss, and two sacks over 13 games.
The six-foot-three, 253-pound native of Chicago, Ill. played at New Mexico in 2024, where he made 29 total tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, and 0.5 sacks over 10 games. He previously played at Iowa Central Community College and Indiana State.
Reese finished his collegiate career at Syracuse University in 2025, where he made 27 total tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, three pass knockdowns, and two fumble recoveries over 12 games.
The six-foot-two, 250-pound native of Fort Pierce, Fla. spent the 2023 and 2024 seasons at California, recording 58 total tackles, 15.5 tackles for loss, 11 sacks, five forced fumbles, and five pass knockdowns.
These moves came one day after Winnipeg moved defensive end Matt Jaworski to the retired list. The six-foot-five, 260-pound defender played one regular-season game in 2025, recording one defensive tackle and one sack.
The Blue Bombers have also released American linebacker Brandon Bouyer-Randle. The 29-year-old native of Battle Creek, Mich. has never dressed for a regular-season CFL game.

Last post by gobombersgo - May 03, 2026, 12:40:36 PMWinnipeg Blue Bombers move Matt Jaworski to retired list, sign two
by 3Down Staff May 1, 2026
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have moved American defensive lineman Matt Jaworski to the retired list.
The six-foot-five, 260-pound defender signed with the team last October, initially joining the practice roster. He dressed for one regular-season game, recording one defensive tackle and one sack.
The 23-year-old was a four-year collegiate standout at Fordham University, an FCS program located in New York City. He made 167 total tackles, 42.5 tackles for loss, 19.5 sacks, eight pass knockdowns, six forced fumbles, and two blocked kicks over 41 collegiate games.
The native of Buffalo, N.Y. earned a second-team All-FCS selection and was named the Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year.
Jaworski's father, Matt, played two regular-season games for the Sacramento Gold Miners in 1994.
The Blue Bombers have also signed American running back OJ Arnold and American receiver Jayden Harrison.
Arnold played four collegiate seasons at Georgia Southern, rushing for 2,016 yards and 14 touchdowns. He also made 66 receptions for 539 yards and four scores, earning a second-team All-Sun Belt selection in 2025.
Harrison finished his collegiate career at Notre Dame, where he made 19 catches for 211 yards and one touchdown in 2024.
The five-foot-ten, 198-pound target spent three seasons at Marshall, where he was named a first-team All-American in 2023 for returning 23 kicks for 705 yards and two touchdowns. He spent three seasons on campus, catching 63 passes for 759 yards and four scores.
The native of Pontiac, Mich. started his collegiate career at Vanderbilt, where he made eight receptions for 20 yards.
