Tiger-cats Bring Back National Kicker Hajrullahu

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats announced Monday the football club has signed national kicker Lirim Hajrullahu to a two-year contract.
Hajrullahu, 28, appeared in all 18 regular season games with the Tiger-Cats last season, converting 46-of-54 field goal attempts (85.2%) and 41-of-46 single convert attempts (89.1%), while averaging 45.0 yards per punt on 95 attempts. The 5-11, 205-pound native of St. Catherines, Ontario also went 5-for-6 on field goals and converted all seven of his single convert attempts in two playoff games with Hamilton in 2018.
