‘Happy over the Fact It’s over’: Number of Emotions as Redblacks Close Trying Season
The Redblacks endured injuries, three starting quarterbacks and a front-office shakeup as new president Mike Morreale begins evaluating the rebuild.
- On Sunday, October 25, 2026, the Ottawa Redblacks concluded a franchise-worst 1-17 season as newly hired president Mike Morreale begins overseeing an organizational reset.
- The campaign fell far from expectations, marked by mid-season dismissals of defensive co-ordinator Will Fields on August 1, vice-president of football operations Shawn Burke on August 17, and president Adrian Scarra by August 23.
- Head coach and general manager Ryan Dinwiddie remains under evaluation, though he expressed commitment to the rebuild, stating, "I want to turn this thing around, right?" Dinwiddie was signed to a three-year contract last season.
- Pending free agents include receiver Justin Hardy, coming off his fourth consecutive 1,000-plus yard season, and linebacker Nyles Morgan, who stated he would be interested in returning to Ottawa.
- Players remain optimistic despite the season. Linebacker Lucas Cormier noted that in a nine-team CFL league, teams can "turn around in a year or two," and Dinwiddie's experience winning two Grey Cups should not be overlooked.
