Ottawa Redblacks re-sign WR Nate Behar

On Thursday, the Ottawa Redblacks re-signed wide receiver Nate Behar to a one-year contract extension. This will be Behar’s third season with the Redblacks.

Nate Behar played 14 games in 2021 with 38 catches for 439-yards and two carries for three yards. In 61 career games, Behar has 81 catches for 865-yards, one touchdown, and two carries for three yards.

Nate Behar is excited to continue his career in Ottawa. “Ottawa has everything in place to be one of the great and successful franchises in this league. From the ownership group, the fans, the city, and facilities. I want to be a part of this organization’s rise.”
