The Hamilton Tiger-Cats have fired special teams coordinator Paul Boudreau after only four games with the team.

“We thank Paul for his contributions and wish him all the best in the future,” said head coach and offensive coordinator Scott Milanovich in a statement. The also club indicated that a replace will be announced in the “near future.”

Through four games, Hamilton ranks third league-wide in net punting, fourth in punt return average, eighth in opponent punt return average, sixth in kickoff return average, and seventh in opponent kickoff return average.

Boudreau joined the Tiger-Cats this past off-season following a seven-year run with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers during which he won two Grey Cups. He wasn’t retained following the 2023 season as Winnipeg hired retired fullback Mike Miller for the role.

The native of Boston, Mass. spent 16 years at the collegiate level with Northeastern, Cincinnati, Brown, Widener, Central Connecticut State, and Fitchburg State. He also had a four-year stint with the St. Louis Rams.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats (0-4) will host the B.C. Lions (3-1) on Sunday, July 7 with kickoff slated for 7:00 p.m. EDT.
