The B.C. Lions have lost a huge piece of their defence as defensive end Cameron Wake has signed a four-year deal with the NFL's Miami Dolphins.
The deal is worth $4.9 million and according to a report in the Globe and Mail it includes a guarantee of $1-million, making it the largest contract ever signed by a CFL player heading to the NFL.
The two-time CFL defensive player of the year worked out for several teams south of the border the past three weeks including the Dolphins.
Wake will likely shift back to outside linebacker for the Dolphins to fully exploit his abilities to get at the quarterback. Wake starred as a linebacker for Penn State before coming to the CFL.
