Saskatchewan Roughriders receiver Weston Dressler has been named to the 2012 CFL all-star team.

It’s the first time Dressler has been named a CFL all-star. He was selected by a voting panel that included fans, members of the Football Reporters of Canada and CFL head coaches.

Dressler finished the 2012 regular season with a career-high 94 catches for 1,206 yards and 13 touchdowns.

It was the fourth time he has accumulated more than 1,000 receiving yards in a season since joining the Riders in 2008.
