Saskatchewan Roughriders’ defensive line coach Phillip Daniels believes Miles Brown has been unfairly labelled a dirty player.  Brown has been involved in three questionable hits on quarterbacks this season, two resulted in him being fined by the CFL. One fine was handed out for a high hit on Zach Collaros in the Labour Day Classic and […]

Ryquell Armstead is putting the fourth-best, single-game rushing performance in Saskatchewan Roughriders franchise history in the rearview mirror. Armstead led the Riders offence with 25 carries for 207 yards in a 37-29 win over the Calgary Stampeders in Week 16, snapping the team’s seven-game winless streak. The run game’s success meant quarterback Trevor Harris only had to throw the ball […]

Despite it being the team’s first post-Labour Day victory since 2021, the Saskatchewan Roughriders are moving ahead quickly after a 37-29 win over the Stampeders in Calgary. That said, there are a number of positives that can be drawn from the Week 16 game. Running back Ryquell Armstead ran for 207 yards on 25 carries, the fourth most in a single […]

Ryquell Armstead couldn’t have asked for a better debut with his new team.

The 5-7-1 Saskatchewan Roughriders are in Calgary for Friday’s match-up with the 4-8-1 Stampeders. The winner of the contest will have the upper hand when it comes to securing a playoff spot in the West Division. The Riders, winless in their last seven games, are all business looking for an elusive victory. Still, a number […]

Saskatchewan Roughrider defensive lineman Miles Brown is lighter in the pocketbook for the second time in as many weeks.   The 27-year-old made contact with Winnipeg quarterback Chris Streveler on a second and short play late in the third quarter of the Labour Day rematch on September 7. On the play, Streveler lined up under […]

The Saskatchewan Roughriders are ready to hand the rock to newly signed running back Ryquell Armsted. Although, head coach Corey Mace doesn’t expect the five-foot-11, 220-pound back to suit up in Week 16 against the Calgary Stampeders.  “He’s going to have to learn the playbook from scratch. The kid looked good out there,” Mace said. If all […]

Legendary Saskatchewan Roughriders quarterback Darian Durant believes the offence needs to improve after the team’s bye week to snap the 0-6-1 winless streak. “I would like to see the offence step up,” Durant told SportsCage host Barney Shynkaruk. “The offence can’t seem to make plays late in the game. Aside from the Labour Day Classic when they went […]

Even though the Saskatchewan Riders are on a seven-game losing streak, morale remains high, according to defensive back Marcus Sayles. “This is one of the best teams I’ve been on,” Sayles said. “It doesn’t seem like it from our record but the camaraderie, the coaching, our work ethic, our schemes — everything looks so good.” The Riders […]

Darian Durant has a different offensive approach for the Saskatchewan Roughriders, which he explained during an appearance on 620 CKRM. “I would have loved to see more shots down the field,” Durant told SportsCage host Barney Shynkaruk. “They went to the well way too many times.” Durant believes taking shots down the field is the way […]
