Winnipeg Blue Bombers give GM Walters and coach O’Shea three-year extensions
WINNIPEG — Negotiations to extend the contracts of Winnipeg Blue Bombers general manager Kyle Walters and head coach Mike O’Shea were casual and went smoothly.
The CFL team announced Friday that both men signed three-year deals, with O’Shea staying on the sidelines through 2019 and Walters adding to his one remaining year to keep him at the helm through 2020.
Club president and CEO Wade Miller said at a press conference that he and Walters talked about an extension during the season.
“(We) had a handshake and figured it out at the end of the year,” Miller said.
