UPDATE: Riders announce Trevon Tate extension, Ajou released for NFL chance
Jan 22, 2025
Tate is set to be the starting left tackle after Trevor Reid was released.
Hey, CFL fans, are you done being concerned?
The talk of the return of the CFL was whether players would still come north to play for less money. From those who have followed the league, the answer was always, of course.
The doom-and-gloomers were pondering if the XFL would entice them or if it would be worth their while to even play in Canada.
When you’re a professional athlete with the carrot of getting paid to play a game, yes, players will sign up.
The CFL teams have been signing and signing and signing players since they were allowed to a few weeks ago.
The Riders have restructured Cody Fajardo, re-signed Shaq Evans, with many more signings on the way.
The good news for the Riders is less money means their star players are unlikely to get wooed away to another team because money is tight everywhere. And it’ll make the Riders are a serious contender for the Grey Cup, which will be something else to look forward to in 2021.
