Saskatchewan Roughriders sign former Kentucky Wildcats DL Octavious Oxendine

The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed American defensive lineman Octavious Oxendine.

The six-foot-one, 318-pound Oxendine spent five collegiate seasons from 2020 through 2024 at the University of Kentucky, appearing in 47 games.

The interior lineman totalled 78 career defensive tackles, including 17 tackles for loss, 10 sacks, and two forced fumbles. After a knee injury cut his 2021 season short, he bounced back in 2022, posting a career-high 22 tackles and earning a nomination for Comeback Player of the Year.

Oxendine continued to develop throughout his time at Kentucky, setting a career best with four sacks as a senior while matching his personal high with six tackles for loss.
