Long was a CFL all-star in 2017 and 2018 after two highly productive seasons for the B.C. Lions. The 25-year-old played in 36 games for the Lions making 82-of-92 three-point tries (88.2 percent) with a long of 52 yards, plus 58-of-65 extra points (89 per cent). Long also punted 236 times for an average of 48.3 yards.

The Long deprture leaves a kicking void to fill for the Lions.
