REGINA — A historic accomplishment for Stanley Bryant.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers’ towering tackle was named the CFL’s top lineman for a record fourth time Thursday night at the league’s awards banquet.

The six-foot-five, 313-pound Bryant also claimed the honour in 2017, ’18 and 2021.

Voting was conducted by members of the Football Reporters of Canada and the nine CFL head coaches.

Winnipeg faces the Toronto Argonauts in the Grey Cup game Sunday, with the Bombers chasing a third straight championship.
