The Redblacks signed seven players on Tuesday.

Most notable in the group, Canadian running back Wayne Moore. He was a second round pick, 11th overall by the Montreal Alouettes in the 2016 CFL draft. The six-foot, 220-pounder suffered a shoulder injury in training camp with the Als last year and missed his entire first season in the CFL.

Fellow McMaster product Zachary Intzandt inked a deal with Ottawa. He was a fifth round, 37th overall selection in the 2016 pick-fest by Winnipeg. After returning to the Marauders for his final USports season, Intzandt attended Bombers training camp earlier this year, but he was released among final cuts.
