WINNIPEG, MB. - The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the club has signed American defensive back Rashaan Gaulden.

He was signed by the Stampeders in late September of 2022 and was released a month later.

Gaulden played in 36 games over three seasons (2014, 2016-17) at Tennessee, missing the 2015 season due to a foot injury. He declared for the NFL Draft following his junior year. During his career with the Volunteers he had 140 total tackles, including 9.5 tackles for a loss, adding one interception, four forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries and 10 passes defended.
