The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed American defensive back Nick Marshall and national linebacker Micah Teitz to contract extensions.
Marshall (6’1-207) played all 14 regular season games, and two playoffs games this season on the road to being named a 2021 West Division All-Star. Widely recognized as one of the league’s best cornerbacks, the Georgia native made 30 defensive tackles and tied teammate Ed Gainey for a team-high three interceptions, one of which he returned for a touchdown.
Teitz (6’2-225) returns to the Roughriders after a breakout season that saw him nominated as the Roughriders’ Most Outstanding Canadian.
In 2021, Teitz stepped into a starting role, playing 13 regular season games for the Club and making a career-high and team-high 64 defensive tackles.
