B.C. Lions agree to terms with free agent defensive end Ricky Foley
VANCOUVER — The B.C. Lions agreed to terms with free agent Ricky Foley on Sunday, bringing the defensive lineman back to the organization that drafted him 11 years ago.
Foley, of Courtice, Ont., was selected by the Lions in the first round, fourth overall, out of York University in 2006. He spent his first four CFL seasons with B.C., winning a Grey Cup in 2006.
Foley was released by the Toronto Argonauts in March.
The 35-year-old had said on Twitter that he had been released via a text message. The Argos made the move official in a statement after Foley took to social media to release the news.
