Milt Stegall first set foot in Winnipeg curious about a short-term adventure, but eager to return to the National Football League. And all these years later, he will insist his 14 seasons in Winnipeg were among the best in his life.
Stegall is, simply put, not only one of the greatest players in Bomber history, but in the long and storied history of the Canadian Football League.
He is one of the most decorated Bombers ever and is the CFL’s all-time touchdown leader with 147, holds the record for most touchdowns in a season with 23 and retired as the league’s all-time receiving yardage king (since broken by Geroy Simon).
Stegall, now an outspoken CFL analyst on TSN telecasts, retired with five Bomber records, including most career receiving yards (15,153), most receiving yards in a season (1,896), most career receptions (854), most 1,000-yard receiving seasons (10) and most seasons leading the team in receiving (7).
