Winnipeg Blue Bombers agree to terms with Reggie White Jr.: sources

[Sir Blue and Gold]

According to sources, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers have agreed to terms on a one-year contract with American receiver Reggie White Jr.

The six-foot-one, 208-pound target played 12 games with the Montreal Alouettes this past season, recording 24 catches for 355 yards and four touchdowns.

The 28-year-old first joined the Alouettes in 2021 following a stint with the New York Giants. He has made 95 receptions for 1,254 yards and eight touchdowns over 32 career regular-season CFL games. White Jr. missed the entire 2023 season due to a knee injury he suffered in October 2022.

The native of Randallstown, Md. is the son of Reggie White, who played four seasons along the defensive line with the San Diego Chargers and New England Patriots. He is sometimes confused for Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee Reggie White, who played along the defensive line with the Philadelphia Eagles, Green Bay Packers, and Carolina Panthers from 1985 to 2000.

That would be a decent addition.

Mitchell, Schoen, White and Demski are all decent targets, and our offense won't be as predictable with Lawler gone. We were definitely hoping and praying on some desperation throws to him. Just throw it to the guy who's open, no one open , check it down, it ain't hard

Meh.  Nice depth.  Hope we didn't pay tier-1 $ for him though!

He's never stood out in fantasy, so he's more of a 3/4/5th target.  And he's been injured and missed so many games the last 2 seasons that it's hard to get a bead on the guy.

This does allow us to get some inside dirt on MTL's O for a potential GC match, though.

I'll have to trust that this is a Mafia-style diamond-in-the-rough signing and not a "poop, we lost Kenny!" desperation move!

Does anyone know this guy's style?  Kenny-like?  Schoen-like?  Bruiser or circus?  Fast or thick-nick?

In any event, welcome to Winnipeg!  If any team can take a middling guy and make him shine, it's us!
