2017: Hamilton Tiger-Cats

The Ticats signed Castillo in May of 2017 and he connected on made 29 of 34 field goals, 20 of 21 converts, and had 93 punts for a 45.1-yard average in 14 games.
On October 6, 2017, Castillo suffered a season-ending ACL injury and was released in the offseason.

2016: Ottawa RedBlacks

Ottawa signed Castillo in September of 2016 as an injury replacement for Zackary Medeiros, the team’s punter. He punted in two games, recording 13 punts for a 45.2-yard average and was released at the end of that month.
