Ja’Gared Davis returns to Tiger-Cats after trade with Stampeders voided

Tuesday’s trade between the Calgary Stampeders and Hamilton Tiger-Cats has been voided, which means American defensive lineman Ja’Gared Davis will return to Hamilton and the Stampeders reclaim their sixth-round selection in the 2024 Canadian Football League draft, the teams announced Thursday.

The trade had been conditional on Davis passing a physical in Calgary.

The 32-year-old from Crockett, Texas appeared in the Grey Cup in all six of his previous CFL seasons, winning the title with Calgary in 2018 in his first stint with the club and Toronto in 2022.

The two-time division all-star has 259 defensive tackles, 49 sacks and two touchdowns — one on a fumble return and one on an interception — over 94 career CFL games with Calgary, Hamilton and Toronto.

He has nine sacks in 13 post-season games.
