The Saskatchewan Roughriders signed veteran American quarterback Jake Maier on Thursday.
The deal reportedly is for one year. Saskatchewan obtained Maier from the Calgary Stampeders last month.
The six-foot, 200-pound Maier spent the previous four seasons with Calgary, starting 45 of 65 regular-season games.
In 2024, he completed 357 of 494 passes for 3,841 yards (third in CFL) with 22 touchdowns (third overall) and 14 interceptions.
Maier’s first full season as a starter was 2023. He threw for 4,244 yards, becoming just the 10th player in Stampeders’ history to crack the 4,000-yard plateau.
As a rookie in 2021, he became the first CFL player to crack the 300-yard milestone in each of his first three starts.
In December, the Roughriders extended quarterback Trevor Harris’s contract for one year as well.
