Blue Bombers sign free agent receiver Adarius Bowman to one-year deal
WINNIPEG — Adarius Bowman has always felt at home at Winnipeg’s Investors Group Field.
After signing a one-year contract with the Blue Bombers on Friday, the free-agent receiver can officially call it that for the first time.
Bowman, who played at the old Canad Inns Stadium as a member of the Blue Bombers from 2009-10 before joining the Edmonton Eskimos the following year, attended the ground-breaking ceremony at the Investors Group Field construction site in 2010.
“I dug one of the first holes into the ground here,” Bowman told reporters at a news conference. “I think it might still be a dose of that in me, even though I left away I can never forget that.”
