Ticats sign All-Star DB Abdul Kanneh

Looking to bolster their secondary with a playmaker, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats did just that by signing defensive back Adbul Kanneh, the club announced.

Entering the CFL in 2014 with the upstart Ottawa RedBlacks, Kanneh has registered 138 tackles, 12 interceptions, three sacks, and five forced fumbles in 43 games.

In 2016, Kanneh was named an East Division All-Star, helping lead the RedBlacks to a Grey Cup Championship. He was a CFL All-Star in 2015.

A native of London, England, Kanneh played college at Division II New Mexico Highlands.
