The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have released American receiver Kenneth Womack.

Womack was originally signed by the team in November. He has never appeared in a CFL game.

The six-foot, 195-pound target spent two seasons at Western Michigan University, making 115 catches for 1,236 yards and two scores while earning a first-team All-MAC selection in 2023. He transferred from Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Conn., where he made 98 receptions for 1,234 yards and five touchdowns. The native of Marlboro, Md., also played on the school’s basketball team.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers opened training camp on May 10. Winnipeg will play its first preseason game against the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Saturday, May 23, and their second preseason game against the B.C. Lions on Friday, May 29. Final roster cuts are due on Saturday, May 30, after which the team will play its first regular-season game against the Calgary Stampeders on Friday, June 5.

Winnipeg recently selected Wake Forest defensive lineman Nuer Gatkuoth with their first-round pick in the 2026 CFL Draft, adding to the club’s pass rush. The team’s other major offseason additions include receiver Tim White, offensive lineman Jarell Broxton, and defensive lineman Jake Ceresna.

In 2025, the Blue Bombers finished fourth in the West Division standings with a 10-8 record, qualifying for the playoffs as the crossover team before losing the East Semi-Final to the Montreal Alouettes.
