The Saskatchewan Roughriders signed Jeff Fuller on Saturday and released fellow wide receiver Kendial Lawrence.

The six-foot-four 223-pound Fuller played parts of three seasons with the Calgary Stampeders before signing with the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks at the end of the 2015 CFL season.

Fuller, 26, has 91 catches for 1,251 yards and eight touchdowns in 25 regular-season CFL games.

“Jeff brings a valued combination of size and speed that will complement our receiver group,” Riders general manager and head coach Chris Jones said in a release. “His ability to play inside or out not only provides us depth but can allow us to be flexible and unpredictable in how we line up.”

Fuller also spent time with the Houston Texans in 2013 and Miami Dolphins in 2012.
