TORONTO -- The Toronto Argonauts Football Club today re-signed free agent import DB Dwaine Carpenter.

Carpenter first signed with Toronto on May 26, 2010 and attended the club’s training camp. He dressed in the Argos’ home pre-season victory over Hamilton and was released on June 17, 2010.

After four seasons in the NFL with the San Francisco 49ers and the St. Louis Rams, Carpenter joined the Stampeders in 2007. He dressed in 50 games with the club and recorded 119 tackles, 44 special-teams tackles, two sacks, two interceptions, four forced fumbles and eight fumble recoveries in three seasons for Calgary, winning a Grey Cup with them in 2008 when he had a remarkable 4 DT and 1 PKD outing in Montreal.

The Argonauts likely will be without a key member of their defence on Friday night in Winnipeg.
Free safety Willie Pile suffered a knuckle injury in the season opener against Calgary and met with a surgeon on Monday. The Argos re-signed defensive back Dwaine Carpenter, who was cut during camp, and Carpenter practised in Pile's place.
“We had Dwaine here long enough so he knows what we’re is doing, so he will be able to step in and play that spot,” Argos head coach Jim Barker said. “We are going under the assumption Willie will not be playing (against the Blue Bombers).”
Carpenter, who spent the past three seasons with the Stampeders, received a call from Barker on Saturday morning at his home in Atlanta.
“Coach Barker asked me if I was available, and I said ‘Yeah, when do you need me?’” Carpenter said. “He said Sunday, asked me if I was ready to go. I had not even unpacked yet.
“The next couple of days is going to be a cram session as far as watching film. Getting back to game tempo is the only adjustment.”
Pile’s backup, Jeremy Unertl, suffered a hamstring injury against Calgary and also is out. Pile talked to reporters after the game against Calgary and did not indicate he was hurt. The injury was not enough to knock Pile out of that game, a 30-16 Argos loss.
The Argos will have defensive tackle Adriano Belli in the lineup versus the Bombers. Belli was suspended by the CFL for the first game for transgressions that occurred during the 2009 season.
