Boyd released for a second time

cFL • The Edmonton Eskimos extended the contracts of linebacker TJ Hill and offensive lineman Brian Ramsay on Friday and released running back Cory Boyd for a second time. Boyd’s release caps a tumultuous season for the veteran running back. He was released by the Toronto Argonauts in August despite being the league’s top rusher at the time. He was immediately picked up by Edmonton, but found trouble finding room in a backfield that also contained Hugh Charles and Jerome Messam and was released in October.
