The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed Canadian offensive lineman Noah Zerr to a one-year contract extension for the 2025 season.
The six-foot-six, 325-pound Zerr returns to the Riders following the 2024 season. As a key member along the offensive line, Zerr helped the Green and White generate 5,019 passing yards and 1,613 rushing yards. The offensive line allowed just 35 sacks — six shy of the league’s best total.
Born in Langenburg, SK, Zerr was selected by the B.C. Lions in the second round, 12th overall during the 2022 CFL Draft and appeared in four games during his rookie season. He spent the 2023 season with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and played three games. He signed with Saskatchewan on December 22, 2023 and made 11 appearances with his home province team last season.
Zerr enjoyed a standout collegiate career at the University of Saskatchewan from 2016-2022 where he played five seasons and appeared in 41 games, primarily as a starting left tackle. In 2021, he helped the Huskies win the Hardy Cup and Uteck Bowl. That same year, Zerr received multiple accolades, including U Sports first-team All-Canadian and Canada West All-Star honours, while also being named the Huskies’ Lineman of the Year.
