The Hamilton Tiger-Cats have re-signed backup quarterback Jeremiah Masoli to a new deal, according to CFL sources.

Masoli entered the year as the team's third string quarterback behind Mathews and starter Zach Collaros but got playing time late in the season and into the playoffs due to injuries.

Masoli was 11-21 for 148 yards and a touchdown in the regular season and 42-60 for 490 yards and three touchdowns to two interceptions in the postseason.
