Defensive lineman Drake Nevis has signed a one-year extension with the Bombers.

The 28-year-old played 14 games in 2017 making 22 tackles and one sack. Those numbers were down from 2016 when Nevis put up 29 tackles and five sacks with Hamilton.

#Bombers announce the re-signing of DT Drake Nevis. Signed for big money last winter, Nevis was a non-factor for long stretches this past season. This is an eyebrow-raiser. #CFL

The LSU product was a third-round NFL pick in 2011 by Indianapolis where he spent two seasons with the Colts and then had stints in San Diego, Dallas, Jacksonville and Carolina. He played in 26 career NFL games making 50 tackles and one sack.
