2002 Preseason: May be the big bonus from the Nealon Greene trade. The Ghana native is an excellent special teams player, but looks great when called upon to play fullback. May seriously challenge FB Chris Szarka for a starting spot in the backfield. Spent his rookie season with the B.C. Lions in 2000, but jumped at the chance to join his hometown Eskimos in 2001. Has stated that he wants to make the Eskimos pay for trading him.
