Fred Perry (born January 5, 1975 in Fort Smith, Arkansas) is a Canadian Football League defensive player for the Edmonton Eskimos.

College career

Perry attended Southern Arkansas University and played two seasons of football. As a senior, he helped in leading his team to the 1997 Gulf South Conference Championship and was named an NCAA Division II All-American. He previously attended Northeastern Oklahoma College.

Professional career

The bulk of Perry's playing career has been in the CFL, though he spent the entire 2002 season on the injured reserve of the NFL's Atlanta Falcons after being injured in an exhibition game. [http://cfl.ca/roster/show/id/64]

In 2006, Perry was second in the CFL in quarterback sacks and was named to the CFL All-Star team. [ [http://www.cfl.ca/index.php?module=roster&func=display&ros_id=64 Official CFL Bio] ] He repeated as an All-Star in 2007 and won the 95th Grey Cup with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

On February 8, 2008, he was traded, along with Saskatchewan's 2008 2nd round CFL Draft choice, to the Edmonton Eskimos. In exchange, the Riders received Steven Jyles and Edmonton's 2008 2nd round draft choice. It was reported that, after re-signing with the Roughriders shortly after the Grey Cup, Perry had repeatedly asked for a signing bonus or cash advance that general manager Eric Tillman could not provide for salary cap reasons.
