OTTAWA - After his first 1,000-yard season in the CFL, American receiver Justin Hardy is returning to the Ottawa REDBLACKS, on a one-year deal.

"I'm excited to be back, and to get back to work," said Hardy. "Rent's due."

Hardy's second season in the nation's capital saw him appear in all 18 games, hauling in 85 passes for 1,009 yards, and three touchdowns.
