The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have re-signed Brady Oliveira, the 2023 Most Outstanding Canadian, to a two-year deal. Oliveira was the CFL's leading rusher last season. The team also re-signed receiver Dalton Schoen to a one-year contract. Oliveira expressed his motivation to stay with Winnipeg as unfinished business and his desire to remain despite potential bigger deals elsewhere. The two-year deal for Oliveira does not include guaranteed money in 2025.
#Bombers Oliviera says he was happy but a little surprised that the team was able to re-sign Dalton Schoen, based on budgetary constraints. OT J. Hardrick leaving for SK opened up budget, but retaining most of the O-line was significant for Oliviera.
#Bombers Oliviera says a big part of his motivation to stay with Winnipeg is unfinished business: “I can’t go to another Grey Cup and lose it.”
#Bombers Oliviera says he could’ve chased the money and taken a bigger deal in other locations but his desire was to stay in Winnipeg. His two-year deal doesn’t include guaranteed money in 2025. #CFL @TSN_Edge

One-year deal, comes in around $230,000. Schoen was asking, and likely could have got much more elsewhere. Big day for the Blue and Gold, who signed RB Brady Oliveira earlier today. https://t.co/dpwkGnikS2
