The club re-signed Canadian defensive back and special teamer Nick Hallett to a one-year contract after he was on the open market for the past 24 hours.

He appeared in his 100th regular season game last year and has made seven starts at safety throughout his career. His real impact has been on special teams and his 80 career special teams tackles ranks sixth most in franchise history.

The Bombers now have nine free agents remaining with Chris Streveler, Dalton Schoen, Terrell Bonds, Kody Case, Shayne Gauthier, Dexter Lawson, Enock Makonzo, Dillon Mitchell and Jamal Woods all currently unsigned.
