WINNIPEG, MB. - The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the club has agreed to terms on a one-year extension with veteran linebacker Kyrie Wilson.
Wilson (6-1, 227; Fresno State; born: November 5, 1992, in Fresno, CA.) returns in 2026 for his ninth Canadian Football League season, all of them with the Blue Bombers.

Wilson, 33, has now appeared in 73 games over his eight seasons with the Blue Bombers and has accumulated 206 tackles, nine sacks, one interception and three forced fumbles.
