Melfort native Logan Ferland signs contract extension with Saskatchewan Roughriders

The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed Canadian offensive lineman Logan Ferland to a two-year contract extension through the 2027 season.

The six-foot-four, 310-pound Ferland is the reigning West Division Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman, coming off a 2024 season where he suited up for 18 regular season games and two playoff games. He was the opening-day starter at right guard, a position at which he made 11 starts, but didn’t miss a beat when he was pressed into action at right tackle, two starts, including the West Final, and at centre, six starts, including the West Semi-Final.

In 2024, the Melfort-born Ferland was the leader of a unit that allowed 35 sacks. His play has contributed to Saskatchewan leading all playoff-bound West Division teams in points scored (453), offensive touchdowns (45), touchdown passes (27) and passer efficiency (98.1). For his efforts, he received his first All-CFL selection last season.

Ferland initially joined the Roughriders as a territorial junior in 2019, spending the season on the practice roster while still playing for the Regina Thunder. He earned a starting role with the Riders in 2021, playing 13 games at left guard, before moving to centre for his final start of the 14-game regular season and also started at left guard for the West Semi-Final and West Final and played the most snaps of any Roughrider in 2021.

The versatile lineman started 15 games at left guard during the 2022 season, helping place two Riders among the top six CFL rushers. In 2023, he played all 18 games, including twice shifting from right guard to right tackle. 2024 was his third consecutive season as the Roughriders’ nominee for Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman.

An accomplished junior player, Ferland won the Prairie Football Conference’s Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman award as a graduating player in 2019. The previous year, he was named a CJFL All-Canadian and a unanimous selection to the PFC all-star team — which he was a member for four consecutive seasons from 2016 to 2019.
