Rookie Camp Day One
By Ed Tait
FYI:
Bombers receiver
Chris Givens, who dressed for three regular season games and made two starts - three if the West Semi-Final is included - is no longer listed on the team's roster. No decision has been made yet on whether he will be suspended or released out right.
"As of right now, he's not reporting," said O'Shea. "Where we put him or what gets done administratively, I don't know yet."
Meanwhile, the club added three players before camp:
RB
Jhurell Pressley (5-10, 205, University of New Mexico) played four seasons with the Lobos, rushing for 2,725 yards and 35 touchdowns. In 2014, Pressley led the nation with a 9.5-yard rushing average, establishing a new Lobo record. Pressley signed as an undrafted free agent with the Minnesota Vikings in 2016.
DB
Mohammed Seisay (6-2, 202, University of Nebraska) played two seasons with the Cornhuskers and was named to the Nebraska Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll. Seisay joined the Detroit Lions in 2014 as an undrafted free agent, playing in 13 games.
RB
Johnny Augustine (5-9, 202, University of Guelph) played five seasons with the Gryphons, rushing for 2,742 yards and 28 touchdowns on 483 rushes. In his senior year, Augustine rushed for 690 yards and nine touchdowns on 122 carries.
The club also announced the signing of receiver
Brisly Estime early in the day, but he promptly failed his physical and was released. The team also transferred defensive back
Travis Howard to the retired list and released International defensive back
Ezra Robinson.
