Adam Bighill retired in May 2025 after 10 seasons and three Grey Cup rings, and Winnipeg's defense immediately lost its on-field quarterback. The Bombers allowed 23.8 points per game in 2025, up from 20.3 in 2024, and their run defense fell from 4.2 to 4.8 yards per carry. Bighill's 74 tackles and 3 sacks from 2024 were never replaced.
