The New England Free Jacks are thrilled to announce the return of veteran second row, Kyle Baillie (33), for the remainder of the 2025 season. A key contributor to the team’s 2024 championship victory, Baillie’s blue collar and team-first approach will bolster the Free Jacks ahead of an important 9 game stretch following the bye week. 

The Summerside, Prince Edward Island Native is a familiar face within MLR having made 48 appearances between NOLA, Toronto, DC and now the Free Jacks. At 6’ 4” and 250 lbs, the battle hardened second row is hard to miss with his trademark smile.

During the 2024 campaign Baillie played a huge role for the Free Jacks accumulating 886 minutes. Across 11 starts and 16 appearances, Baillie averaged 4 lineout takes and 23 attacking breakdown actions per game. 

On returning, Baillie said: “I’m looking forward to another run at the shield with some of my best mates.”

After three straight road games, this will be a welcome homecoming for New England fans, who will be eager to celebrate their reigning champions in person.
