RIDERS RE-SIGN HICKSON, RELEASE WIENEKE
The Saskatchewan Roughriders re-signed American running back Frankie Hickson to a one-year contract extension Thursday.
Hickson was scheduled to become a free agent next month.
The five-foot-eight, 200-pound Hickson is entering his third season with the Riders. He ran for 157 yards on 35 carries (4.5-yard average) in 10 regular-season games last year.
In 2022, Hickson had 533 rushing yards on 85 carries (6.3-yard average) and a touchdown while adding 17 catches for 109 yards in 13 regular-season games.
The Riders also released veteran American receiver Jake Wieneke. The six-foot-four, 215-pound Wieneke appeared in six games last season — his first with Saskatchewan — registering 17 catches for 177 yards.
Wieneke, 29, joined the Riders as a free agent following three seasons with Montreal. He had 142 catches for 2,056 yards and 21 TDs in 48 regular-season games with the Alouettes.
