The Calgary Stampeders have re-signed veteran defensive back Nick Statz, according to an official team announcement.
Statz, 26, was set to hit the free agent market next month, and has played the last two seasons in Calgary.
“We’re excited to get Nick back for the 2023 season,” Stampeders general manager and head coach Dave Dickenson said in a statement (h/t TSN). “He is committed to this city and is a player who provides leadership and versatility to our team.”
Statz played 11 regular-season games in 2022 and was among the Stampeders’ leaders with 12 special-teams tackles six defensive stops, one knockdown and his first career interception.
