WINNIPEG – Receiver Clarence Denmark is the only player on the Blue Bombers named to this years Canadian Football League’s all-star team. 26 players are named to the all-star team with this Denmark’s first all-star selection. He broke the thousand yard mark for the first time in his career finishing 2nd in the CFL in receiving with 1080 yards while adding three touchdowns.
“Feels good!” said Denmark. “It’s a really good feeling to be recognized, you know, for your hard work.”
Denmark is still living in Winnipeg after completing his 4th season with the Blue Bombers. He started all 18 games in 2014 and has caught at least one pass in 33 straight games.
“For me it was just, you know, being consistent” said Denmark. “And playing with Drew (Willy) is a big thing. I tell everybody that. Just playing with a quarterback that’s you know in the game and you’re playing with him from week to week. It’s a good feeling to know you have that chemistry with your quarterback.”
Denmark recently signed an extension that will keep him under contract through the 2016 season.
The other all-star receivers were Adarius Bowman (Edmonton), Chad Owens (Toronto) and Duron Carter (Montreal). The Toronto Argonauts Ricky Ray was the all-star quarterback. Former Bombers Odell Willis (Edmonton) and Brendon LaBatte (Saskatchewan) were also chosen for the all-star team.
