J-WILL RETURNS TO RIDERVILLE

REGINA – Receiver Jordan Williams-Lambert is returning to the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

After getting cut by the Chicago Bears following the NFL pre-season, Williams-Lambert has signed a deal with the Roughriders that will keep him with Saskatchewan through 2020.

The six-foot-three, 228-pound Ball State graduate was the CFL West’s rookie of the year last season after making 62 catches for 764 yards and four touchdowns.

Williams-Lambert, 25, had five receptions for 49 yards in three pre-season games with Chicago.

In other team news, the club signed free agent defensive lineman Chad Geter, and released kicker Gabe Ferraro and cornerback Solomon Means.

Have to sit Manny. Put JWL in that spot. Receivers move around in various positions on the field so initially spotting J as a wide out is no big deal because he can slot in wherever depending on the play. BUT, Manny is done, stick a fork in him. Keep him around as a motivator and locker room guy and kind of like a coach. I also still like Stafford so keep him on the back burner in case of injuries.

Can he play O-Line or defense because that’s what the riders need
