Jake Thomas to tackle 11th season with Winnipeg Blue Bombers

Jake Thomas is the longest-serving member of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, having played 10 seasons. He is also the latest veteran to sign a contract extension. Thomas and Eagles played together in the NHL. They both are undersized for their jobs and faced long odds of making it in pro sports. The management of Winnipeg has improved since the new regime took over. The team won two Grey Cups and two league titles. It also won three league championships. Jake Thomas has become a family man. His wife and son are also playing hockey. Willie Jefferson, Adam Bighill and Pat Neufeld have also signed contract extensions since last season.
