Ticats reach deals with pair of receivers
Football Betting Lines
02/09/2012 - Hamilton, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Tiger-Cats signed Bakari Grant to a contract extension that will keep the receiver in Hamilton through the 2014 season.
Grant caught 42 passes for 507 yards and two touchdowns as a rookie last season, adding 10 receptions for 184 yards and a score in two playoff games.
"Bakari showed a lot of promise last season. With his size, speed, and ability, he has the potential to be a great receiver in this league," said Hamilton vice president of football operations Bob O'Billovich.
The Ticats also signed receiver Terence Jeffers-Harris to a new contract after he finished the 2011 campaign on the club's practice roster. He had been released by Winnipeg during the season.
Jeffers-Harris made 77 receptions for 894 yards and six touchdowns in 19 games with the Blue Bombers.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
