The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are taking steps to beef up the depth around quarterback Drew Willy.

The club announced Monday it has inked pending free agent Jace Daniels, an import offensive lineman, to a two-year contract extension. The 26-year-old Northern Michigan product was scheduled to become a free agent this February.

Daniels will be entering his third year with the Bombers in 2016, first seeing action as a starter in October of 2014. He suited up for seven games, starting six, in 2015 before suffering a season-ending leg injury in August.

"Jace was a solid contributor along the offensive line for us before being injured last season," said Bombers GM Kyle Walters in a statement. "He will be fully ready to go for training camp, and we envision him definitely competing for a starting spot on the line again in 2016."
