22h ago
The Saskatchewan Roughriders handled business at home and have jumped ahead into second place in the CFL West Division.
Saskatchewan defeated the Ottawa Redblacks 29-16 at Mosaic Stadium on Saturday on the strength of seven Brett Lauther field goals. The Riders win paired with the B.C. Lions loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats means Saskatchewan has jumped into second place in the division.
Riders running back Ryquell Armstead had to leave the game in the second half. He finished the day with 32 yards. Canadian Thomas Bertrand-Hudon came in for relief and scored a touchdown.
Quarterback Trevor Harris had another efficient day throwing the ball, passing for 315 yards.
Redblacks quarterback Jeremiah Masoli was starting the game due to an injury to Dru Brown. Masoli had a touchdown and three interceptions thrown in the game — Marcus Sayles, Rolan Milligan Jr., and Adam Auclair securing the turnovers. Milligan’s pick was his seventh of the season — the most in the CFL this season.
