"We're thrilled to re-sign Jykine," Tiger-Cats general manager Bob O'Billovich said in a statement. "He's a veteran, character guy who will be a valuable member of our secondary this season."
Bradley started two games last season, posting three defensive tackles and two interceptions, and has appeared in 20 games the last three years.
The five-foot-nine, 188-pound Bradley has recorded 49 tackles, five pass knockdowns and six interceptions in his first three seasons with Hamilton.
In related news, the Ticats released defensive back Richard Karikari and offensive lineman Ryan Donnelly on Thursday.
