American receiver Steven Dunbar Jr. has retired from professional football.
The 30-year-old made the announcement via multiple social media platforms on Tuesday.
Dunbar had been a free agent since February 10 when his contract expired with the Edmonton Elks. He saw action in 10 games last season, notching 44 receptions for 511 yards and two touchdowns.
The native of New Orleans, La. entered the CFL in 2021 with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and broke out the following season with a 1,000-yard campaign, earning East Division all-star recognition. He moved to Edmonton in 2023 but was released following a disappointing season, later spending time with the UFL’s Houston Roughnecks. He returned to Hamilton in 2024, rebounding with a second career divisional All-CFL selection.
In 70 career CFL games with the Ticats and Elks, Dunbar caught 274 passes for 3,836 yards and 22 touchdowns.
