VANCOUVER — The BC Lions locked up an integral piece to their puzzle on Thursday as National placekicker Sean Whyte has signed a contract extension for the 2023 season. Whyte was set to become a free agent in February.
Strange, peculiar, interesting that BC, with all their free agents, would start with signing their kicker, solid as he is, but, structural? Guess he was waiting to see which coaches were coming back first!
They must have heard footsteps slowly working their way from Winnipeg towards Vancouver.
I was thankful for all the years he spent in Edmonton but we all knew - sooner or later he was going back home to BC, because he never made a secret of the fact he wanted to finish his career back at home.
