Ottawa REDBLACKS Sign WR Justin Hardy

Justin Hardy, a wide receiver who played most of his NFL career with the Atlanta Falcons, was signed by the REDBLACKS on February 28th, according to the CFL's own transactions report. Yet, for some reason, the team has never bothered to announce it.

Here are his Falcons receiving numbers copied from the NFL's site under a rather cool photo by Bob Andres




The NFL lists him as being 5'10", 192. He had a record-setting career at East Carolina prior to that including setting the mark for career receptions in the NCAA in 2014. He twice surpassed the 100-reception mark. The Falcons drafted him in the fourth round in 2015. He turned 30 this past December.

Does this not seem newsworthy?  The Ottawa Sun/Citizen did have a story about it, as did some fan-based media outlets. 

The REDBLACKS? Nothing yet. Sometimes with this team it feels like the actual roster is an afterthought.
