-

The Calgary Stampeders have resigned Canadian defensive back Royce Metchie and American offensive lineman Nila Kasitati.

Metchie, a University of Guelph product, recorded 48 defensive tackles in 2019, including four tackles for loss.

Kasitati started 16 games at right tackle in 2019, his second season with the Stampeders.

He was part of an offensive line that allowed 34 sacks, the second-lowest total in the CFL.

The Saskatchew­an Roughrider­s have signed Canadian offensive lineman Mattland Riley and inked defensive back L.J. McCray to an extension.

Riley, a six-foot-three, 300-pound native of Melfort, Sask., was selected seventh overall by the Riders in 2020.

McCray made 47 defensive tackles and three intercepti­ons over 13 games in 2019 with the Riders in his first CFL season.
