CFL teams reveal 10 players from their confidential 45-man negotiation lists
TORONTO — If the second time with the Philadelphia Eagles isn’t the charm for tight end Adam Zaruba, the CFL could become an option for the Canadian rugby player.
The six-foot-five, 265-pound Zaruba, a member of Canada’s rugby sevens squad, is preparing for his second training camp appearance with the Eagles. He signed with the NFL club last year three days before the start of camp but was released in September.
Zaruba, 26, of North Vancouver, B.C., re-signed with Philadelphia in January just before the Eagles made their Super Bowl-winning run.
On Tuesday, the Saskatchewan Roughriders revealed Zaruba as one of 10 players on their 45-man negotiation list, giving the club exclusive rights to Zaruba should he decided to play football in Canada.
