WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Blue Bombers continue to stockpile talent on the offensive line with today's announcement of the signing of non-import lineman Jean-Francoise Ostiguy.

Ostiguy (6-3, 310, Laval '05, DOB: March 11, 1980 in St.-Jeau-Sur-Richelieu, Que.) played four seasons for the Laval Rouge et Or. He was a Quebec conference first-team all-star and a Canadian Interuniversity Sport second-team all-star in 2003 and '04.

"We are pleased to add a quality, non-import offensive lineman of Jean-Francoise's ability after the draft," said Bombers G.M. Brendan Taman.

"After evaluating our film our coaches definitely thought he would be worth a look in camp."

Ostiguy will join 12 other offensive linemen when the Blue Bombers opening training camp May 28.
