Free Agency: Messam returns as Jones hints at more moves
An old Roughrider favourite appears to be returning as the team continues to lock up solid Canadian talent in free agency.
Running back Jerome Messam was traded to Calgary in 2015 in exchange for kicker Tyler Crapigna and a third round draft pick, but Messam became a free agent on Feb. 13 and was able to sign anywhere.
Early on Wednesday, Messam tweeted that he has decided on Riderville.
Messam thanked his agent, Riders head coach and vice president of football operations Chris Jones and assistant vice president John Murphy “for another opportunity at greatness,” adding he’s excited to be back in Riderville.
