The Edmonton Eskimos have released Canadian offensive lineman Mason Woods.

The Eskimos acquired Woods in December 2017 trade when Edmonton sent quarterback James Franklin and a third round CFL draft pick to the Toronto Argonauts.

Woods was selected in the second round, 10th overall during the 2017 CFL draft. The 24-year-old has yet to suit up in a CFL game through two seasons in the league.
