The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have signed Canadian defensive lineman Brock Gowanlock.
The six-foot-three, 235-pound defender spent the past three seasons with the Montreal Alouettes, recording four defensive tackles and 12 special teams tackles. He played only three games due to injury in 2024.
Gowanlock was originally an eighth-round pick of the Alouettes in the 2020 CFL Draft. He was active for the team’s victory in the 110th Grey Cup over the Blue Bombers.
The 28-year-old native of Duncan, B.C. played collegiately at the University of Manitoba where he recorded 177 total tackles, 19 tackles for loss, 11 sacks, four pass knockdowns, five forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, and one touchdown over 38 games. He was named a Canada West all-star and second-team U Sports All-Canadian in 2021.
