Saskatchewan Roughriders sign all-star running back Ka’Deem Carey

By Canadian Press on June 9, 2025.

REGINA — The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed all-star running back Ka’Deem Carey, the CFL club announced Monday.

Carey was a CFL East all-star with Toronto last season after rushing for a team-high 1,060 yards with seven touchdowns. He had 79 yards and a TD in the Argonauts’ 41-24 Grey Cup victory over Winnipeg.

However, he was among Toronto’s final round of cuts before the start of the season.

Before joining Toronto, Carey spent four seasons with the Calgary Stampeders. He helped the Stamps win a Grey Cup as a rookie in 2018 and led the CFL in rushing in both 2021 and 2022, earning a CFL all-star nod in the latter season.

Over 62 regular-season games, the 32-year-old from Tucson, Ariz., has totalled 3,915 rushing yards and 26 touchdowns.

The Roughriders also added American linebacker Braxton Hill and American offensive lineman Darius Washington.
