Parker filled a bunch of roles in the defensive backfield in his 4 years/3 seasons in Winnipeg. Played 11 games this year after missing all of 2024 with an ACL injury.

I think this strongly hints that Houston will be re-upping.  You don't want to shed all the super-vet corners.  Parker was ok after returning, but never lit it up.  He may be aging out or may get some decent offers from the weak teams.

Houston is next on the bubble, too.  He better regain his '21 form or some scouting find will overtake him.

No announcement from the Bombers yet but looks like Eli was extended.

No announcement from the Bombers yet but looks like Eli was extended.

No surprise.  Unless we find (and want!) a monster IMP C (and pigs will fly), or the next league-top NAT C, you can't beat Eli as an affordable and well-liked NAT C & OG backup.  And he certainly has the experience now.

Good signing.
