The Winnipeg Blue Bombers signed import defensive end Odell Willis to a contract extension on Thursday.
Willis, who was acquired in a trade with the Calgary Stampeders last season, finished third in the league in quarterback sacks with 11 and added four forced fumbles.
"This team has always shown faith in me and I love playing in front of these fans," said Willis. "I believe we have built a solid foundation and I'm definitely looking forward to being a Blue Bomber for many years to come."
In two seasons in the league, Willis has racked up 51 tackles and 21 sacks with both Calgary and Winnipeg.
"We are very excited to be able to secure a key piece of our defence for years to come," said Blue Bombers' vice-president and general manager Joe Mack. "We feel our defensive line is one of the best in the league and Odell has shown how dominant he can be in his short time in this league."
