Blue Bombers transfer WR Kenny Lawler to suspended list

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have transferred wide receiver Kenny Lawler to the suspended list pending resolution of matters related to his 2021 off-field incident, the team announced Thursday.

The team expects to issue an update in “3-4 weeks from now” once Lawler’s situation is resolved.

In October of 2021, Lawler was arrested for drunk driving.

“It was a selfish decision. Just a bad decision on my part that I knew better not to step in that car. I’m sorry to everyone out there,” Lawler told reporters at the time.

The 28-year-old receiver caught 58 passes for 894 yards and five touchdowns in 12 games for the Blue Bombers last season

Winnipeg has one pre-season game remaining before they open the regular season by hosting the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on June 9.
