Ottawa Redblacks announce that quarterback Devlin (Duck) Hodges has retired

OTTAWA — Quarterback Devlin (Duck) Hodges has retired, the Ottawa Redblacks announced Friday.

The six-foot-one, 210-pound Hodges appeared in four games with Ottawa last season, his first in the CFL. The 26-year-old American completed 16-of-38 passes (42.1 per cent) for 139 yards with an interception and no touchdowns.

Hodges also ran nine times for 38 yards (4.2-yard average).

Hodges signed a three-year deal with Ottawa last September after remaining on the CFL club’s negotiation list for over four years.
