This makes perfect sense.
John Chick will continue to haunt opposing quarterbacks in a Tiger-Cats uniform.
Hamilton has re-signed the native of Gillette, Wyo., through the 2018 CFL season.
And why not?
He was one of the few Ticats players to start every game last season and was named a CFL All-Star as well as the Ticats’ most outstanding defensive player in his first year with the team.
Chick tied for second in the CFL with 14 sacks and was a force all season long.
At 34, Chick is still an elite player in this league and that’s a testament to his work ethic on and off the field.
He’s the kind of player a coach loves.
Kent Austin knows, game in and game out, what Chick is going to deliver.
High energy, consistent pressure in the pocket, a disruptive force on the line, and doing all of that with a tremendous attitude and commitment to winning.
Re-signing John Chick makes perfect sense because he’s the total package.
