WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today added import defensive back Thaddeus Lewis to its roster.

Lewis (5-10, 185, Cincinnati Â’03, DOB: Apr. 6, 1982 in St. Croix, Virgin Islands) joins the Big Blue after most recently playing for the Cincinnati Bearcats, the alma mater of head coach Dave Ritchie.

“I saw him at a workout at the University of Cincinnati,” said Ritchie. “He reminds me a lot of a player named Blue Odoms in that he has the same skills. He looks good.”
