The B.C. Lions have named veteran coach Dennis McKnight their new special teams co-ordinator.
The CFL club made the announcement Monday as it returned from a bye week.
McKnight spent five seasons with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, including as special teams co-ordinator in 2024 and 2025, and spent the 2011 campaign as running backs coach for the then-Edmonton Eskimos.
He previously coached in the XFL and with several NCAA programs, including the University of Hawaii and San Diego State.
The Lions fired former special teams co-ordinator Cory McDiarmid on June 28 after opening the season with three straight losses.
B.C. (1-3) will return to play on Friday, taking on the Elks (4-1) in Edmonton.
