Dave and Craig Dickenson are together again with the Calgary Stampeders.
The Stampeders appointed Craig Dickenson as a senior consultant on Tuesday. His younger brother Dave Dickenson is Calgary’s head coach and GM.
This marks the older Dickenson’s third time with Calgary.
He was a receivers coach in 2002, then joined the Montreal Alouettes as a running backs coach before returning to the Stampeders as running backs coach in 2004.
He served as the Stampeders special-teams co-ordinator from 2005-09.
Craig Dickenson rejoins the Stampeders after being the Saskatchewan Roughriders head coach (2019, 2021-23).
“This is an excellent organization and football staff, and I look forward to helping them succeed,” he said.
Dave Dickenson was a quarterback with Calgary’s Grey Cup-winning 2008 squad before retiring and joining its coaching staff in 2009 as a running backs coach.
“Craig is well connected in both the CFL as well as U.S. football and he will make our staff better,” said Dave Dickenson. “He’ll be a valuable resource in many areas including advance scouting and player personnel.
“We’re glad to have Craig back with the Red and White.”
Craig Dickenson also served as a special-teams co-ordinator with Winnipeg (2013), Edmonton (2014-15) and Saskatchewan (2016-18). He earned Grey Cup rings with Calgary (’08) and the Elks (2015).
