Winnipeg Blue Bombers wide receiver Kenny Lawler has signed a new contract, ensuring his continued presence with the team. Lawler, who rejoined the Blue Bombers in 2023 after a stint with the Edmonton Elks, has been instrumental in the team’s recent successes, including back-to-back Grey Cup championships in 2019 and 2021.
In the 2024 season, Lawler played 12 games, recording 50 receptions for 901 yards and six touchdowns. His performance in the postseason was notable, with six receptions for 83 yards in the West Final against the B.C. Lions and three catches for 77 yards during the Grey Cup against the Montreal Alouettes. citeturn0search1
Blue Bombers General Manager Kyle Walters expressed optimism about retaining both Lawler and fellow receiver Dalton Schoen for the 2025 season. Despite Schoen’s mid-season injury in 2024, which limited him to three games, he remains a valuable asset to the team. citeturn0search6
