REGINA - The Saskatchewan Roughriders signed defensive lineman Charleston Hughes to a contract extension through the 2019 season Monday.
Saskatchewan acquired Hughes from Hamilton on Feb. 2. The move came shortly after the Tiger-Cats landed Hughes from the Calgary Stampeders.
The six-foot-one, 246-pound Hughes spent 10 seasons with Calgary, registering 412 tackles, 99 sacks, 38 special-teams tackles and 23 forced fumbles. Hughes also played in 11 career post-season games and four Grey Cups, winning twice.
Hughes, 34, was a CFL all-star last season for the fourth time.
