More Rider Roster Shuffling on Day 3 of Training Camp

By Les Lazaruk May 22, 2018 | 12:43 PM

       The third day of on-field work for the Saskatchewan Roughriders’ training camp offered up another set of roster moves.

       Canadian defensive lineman Eddie Steele was activated from the injured list while a pair of defensive back prospects were signed…Canadian Tristan MacDonald-Doughlin and import Daniel Davie. To make room, former C-F-L and N-F-L defensive back John Ojo was released, along with import defensive back Nick James. Helping the matter was Canadian offensive lineman Jeremy Zver retiring.

“They just, physically, weren’t ready,” said Riders General Manager and head coach Chris Jones about the releases of Ojo and James. “They were just too rusty.”

        Thanks to a track meet Tuesday at Griffiths Stadium, the Green and White practiced at Saskatoon Minor Football Field. They’ll be back at Griffiths Wednesday, then revert to S-M-F for Thursday and Friday as the Bob Adams-Saskatoon high school track and field championships occupy Griffiths Stadium. Following is the news release from the Riders…

Have Your Say

When you receive your carbon tax rebate by direct deposit have you ever not known where it came from, regardless of how it was identified on your statement?

The Candian government wants the country’s banks to identify, in customers’ bank statements when they receive the carbon rebate, that it is labelled as such.

Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says the lack of a clear identifier is contributing to confusion about carbon price rebates, so he is going to change the law if he has to in order to force the big banks to identify the carbon rebate by name when doing direct deposits.

The first rebate deposits in 2022 were labelled very generically, which meant recipients had no idea why they were getting the money.

T-D and B-MO have adopted the government’s requested “CdaCarbonRebate” entry, R-B-C and Scotiabank say they couldn’t make the change in time for the rollout, and C-I-B-C is still calling it “Deposit Canada.”
