1st & 10 | The Blue Bombers Pending Free Agent List

Jake Thomas has retired and will now take on the role of DL coach.

Good for Jake.

As with many players, he probably hung on a bit too long, but I have to imagine he's going to be a great coach and it clears the way for guys who can get a bit more pressure from the middle.

Veru intrigued by the decision.  He obviously is taking a pay cut from being a player.  And he has a life/business on the East Coast. 

I guess he's going to see if he can take the MOS / Buck / Mace / Dinwiddie path to a bigger paycheck.

I could see this move coming, MOS favourite becomes coach.

I just hope he can whip this unit into shape and start being an effective unit.

JT is a player thats lasted due to perseverance, attitude,and effort and leadership in blue bomber culture. If he can pass this on its a win

Jordan Younger must be comfortable with this decision as he will be working closely with Jake.

Happy for Jake. He had a good career, and a great Bomber. But you could tell father time had caught up with him last year. Now, can we get Biggie back to coach our LBs.

I never thought he had an expensive contract but also don't know what the coaching position will pay.

Derek Taylor:

Bombers announce they have released DB Jamal Parker and WR Cam Echols.

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.

Wow, they moved on from Parker giving him a head start on FA.  Kind of thought he was in danger of being replaced with the players they brought in last season, obviously they see Cam Allen, Dexter Lawson and Demerio Houston as better options.

Yes but Lawson and Houston are still technically potential free agents. Deals may have been made but not announced.
