The Winnipeg Blue Bombers won’t be raising hardware over their heads on Sunday at the Grey Cup, but one of their players is going home with a few awards of his own.
Bombers returner Trey Vaval was the winner of two awards as the CFL honoured its best players Thursday night at Club Regent Casino. Vaval won the Most Outstanding Rookie Award and Most Outstanding Special Teams Player Award after a season in which he had four return touchdowns and became one of the league’s dominant return threats.
