TORONTO - The Toronto Argonauts signed international backs Henry Josey and Michael Dyer on Thursday and announced the retirement of international linebacker Brian Rolle.

Josey appeared in seven games last season but finished the 2015 campaign on Toronto's practice roster. Prior to joining the Argos, Josey spent time with the NFL's Jacksonville Jaguars, Minnesota Vikings and Philadelphia Eagles.

Dyer played two seasons at Louisville (2013-14) after transferring from Auburn (2010-11). The offensive MVP in Auburn's 2011 BCS title win, Dyer finished his NCAA career with 3,039 rushing yards and 22 touchdowns on 578 carries.

Dyer, a college teammate of Carolina Panthers star quarterback Cam Netwon, attended the Oakland Raiders' training camp last season.
