Veteran receiver Kenny Lawler helped Winnipeg Blue Bombers win back-to-back Grey Cups in 2019 and 2021
Now the American wide receiver’s insatiable drive to win is fuelling the Winnipeg Blue Bombers as they prepare to face the Toronto Argonauts in the Grey Cup on Sunday.
Lawler grew up in Paloma, Calif., trying to outrace his friends and beat them in marbles. He played football at the University of California and was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in 2016, but said he had to learn how to truly compete. “I kind of made a promise to myself that I’m not going to take any football opportunity for granted ever again. Because I don’t know when it’s going to be my last,” he said. “From there, I just kind of took off when I got to Winnipeg.”
“Kenny is a tremendous talent, but I just appreciate the way he plays the game. He plays with such gratitude and appreciation and you see that in his play. He just loves being out there. And he plays football the right way, which is 100 miles an hour.”“Kenny’s one of the most special football players I’ve ever been around in my life,” the quarterback said. “Uber talented. Some of the catches that we’ve seen him make in practice and in games, I’ve never seen another person do.
