Harris Returns To Practice, Riders Add Two
Veteran quarterback Trevor Harris was running the first team offense for the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Monday as the team practiced for the first time since Thursday’s 22-22 tie at Ottawa.
Harris missed six games while dealing with a knee injury and after Monday’s workout, head coach Corey Mace told reporters there’s “a shot” Harris could play Friday when Saskatchewan hosts the Montreal Alouettes.
Meanwhile the Roughriders have signed offensive lineman Jean Delance and linebacker Aubrey Miller Jr., the CFL club announced Monday.
The six-foot-five, 305-pound Delance attended the B.C. Lions’ training camp earlier this year.
He also played for the United Football League’s DC Defenders earlier in the year. He was ejected from a game for spitting on an opponent in a March 31 game.
The 6-1, 229-pound Miller played five games with the Edmonton Elks this season, earning four special teams tackles.
Previously, the 25-year-old from Memphis, Tenn., attended training camp with the Miami Dolphins, where he had two tackles over two pre-season games.
The Roughriders (5-3-1) host the defending Grey Cup-champion Montreal Alouettes (8-1) on Friday in a battle of division leaders.
