REGINA — The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed linebacker Jameer Thurman to a two-year contract extension.
Thurman registered 76 defensive tackles, two special teams tackles, one sack and two interceptions — including one returned for a touchdown — en route to being named a CFL West all-star last season.
The 29-year-old American joined the Roughriders in free agency after a strong 2023 season with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, where he earned 98 defensive tackles and five sacks.
Thurman previously played four seasons (2017-18, 2021-22) with the Calgary Stampeders, helping the team win a Grey Cup in 2018.
