In his first year in the Canadian Football League (CFL) in 2019, the American had 58 catches for 818 yards and six touchdowns in 15 games with the Sparrows.

He then put his hands on 35 balls for 481 yards and two majors in 12 games during the 2021 season. Bray was also almost forced to miss this campaign, after having had trouble with American justice.

In February 2020, he was arrested for attempting to smuggle 185lbs of marijuana through customs between Mexico and the United States. One of the counts in this case dropped and pleaded guilty to the other charge filed against him. He eventually had to pay a fine.

Bray attended training camp for the Alouettes this season, but was released before the start of the regular season. So he didn’t play football in 2022.

Adam Bighill remains in Winnipeg

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have announced a new two-year deal with linebacker Adam Bighill.

The 34-year-old athlete has just played his 10th season on the Canadian circuit and his fourth in a Bombers uniform. In 18 games, he had 72 tackles, two quarterback sacks and one interception.
