Orange Helmet Awards

The BC Lions Football Club announced this morning that international receiver Cameron Morrah and running back Brendan Bigelow have signed with the team.

Morrah brings some NFL experience to the Lions after spending three years with the Seattle Seahawks from 2009 to 2011.

Selected by Seattle in the seventh round of the 2009 NFL Draft, the former California-Berkley grad appeared in 27 games over three seasons hauling in 16 receptions for 194 yards.

Before becoming a free agent in 2014, Morrah also spent time with San Francisco, Detroit and Denver.

Bigelow joins the club following a notable four-year stay at California-Berkley as well as a training camp stint with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2014.

In college, the speedy back piled-up 877 yards on the ground over 155 carries with five majors in addition to 42 receptions for 305 yards.

A threat on special teams, Brendan added 1,363 yards on 62 career kickoff returns.

Both additions to the Lions will be in action later this month when the club hosts an offensive mini-camp from April 27^th to 29^th.
