Bombers extend contract of Feoli-Gudino

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today are pleased to announce the club has extended the contract of National receiver Julian Feoli-Gudino. The extension keeps Feoli-Gudino in Blue and Gold through the 2016 season.

Feoli-Gudino appeared in 16 games in 2014, starting seven, after being signed as a free agent in January of 2014. He finished the season with 24 receptions for 210 yards and two touchdowns, including a game winner with under a minute to play in a July victory over Montreal.

“Julian became a reliable receiver for us in somewhat limited playing time this past season,” said Blue Bombers General Manager Kyle Walters. “If you think about some of the big catches he made for us, not just the winning touchdown in Montreal, but also a huge third down catch to keep the winning drive alive in Hamilton, he has shown the ability to come through in the clutch. He can return kicks, play special teams, he works hard and is a solid locker room guy for us, so we are pleased to get this done with him.”

It's great to see all our core Canadians getting locked into extensions now.

Good signing. Thru 2017. wow!

Canadian talent you lock up till you know you have better 25 better Canadians than that player. Great move.

Good signing. Thru 2017. wow!

Darren Cameron says 2017. Bombers website says 2016. I've requested clarification.

@Darren_Cameron: @garrettbillan1 it's 2017. Error on my part communicating to web dpt.

Another good move. He's a good player, fits well here. Love that we are signing our Canadians. Baby steps as we improve that aspect of the team.

Good signing.  Can't have too many Canucks who can play when called upon.

Looking forward to seeing this kid push for a starting spot in camp. He's gonna be real interesting to watch.

Another solid extension for sure. Bombers actually doing quite a bit this off-season so far. 

If they extended Feoli-Gudino, does that mean that he's also collapsible?   

I'd like to see him in the starting lineup for 18 games next year.

If memory serves, Julian Feoli-Gudino's catches last season essentially won two games for us in the dying moments. Without those two wins, our record would have gone from bad to downright embarassing.

I like this JPG of JFG ... notice when him and Neuf weren't in the lineup we didn't win as much?

They should have played him more as he deserved it.
