The Saskatchewan Roughriders announced today that they have agreed to terms of a new contract with non-import defensive tackle Keith Shologan. Financial details of the contract were not released.
Shologan just completed his fourth season with the Green and White after originally being selected by the Riders in the first round (4th overall) in the 2008 CFL Canadian Draft. Since then, the 25-year-old has become a staple on the Riders’ defensive line.
In 55 regular season games, Shologan has tallied 84 defensive tackles, eight quarterback sacks, four tackles for a loss and two forced fumbles. He has also played in five playoff games and added 11 defensive tackles, two quarterback sacks and one fumble recovery. Shologan was named the Most Valuable Canadian in the 2010 Grey Cup.
In 2011, the Central Florida product tallied 26 defensive tackles, two quarterback sacks and two tackles for a loss in 18 regular season games played.
Shologan was set to become a free agent in February, 2012.
