WORTH READING: STAMPS DAY 6 REPORT

Here is the summary of the activity from Day 6 of the Stampeders’ training camp:

Transactions
International LB Brandon Harper (Widener) was added to the roster

Quotable
Defensive lineman Shomari Williams, who enters his sixth season in the CFL and his first with the Stamps:

“Ever since I came into the league, Calgary has always been one of the top organizations in the CFL. So being here is really special and I think if we can just keep the ball rolling from what they had last year – and I can help contribute to that – then we’ll win another Grey Cup.”

Notable
National REC Lemar Durant did not practise in the morning but returned for the afternoon session
National OL Karl Lavoie did not take part in either of Friday’s practice
International DL DeQuin Evans did not practise

Alumni Drop By
A pair of familiar faces were in attendance on Friday. In the morning, former Stamps kicker J.T. Hay dropped in to say hello. In the afternoon, Bob Vespaziani, who coached the Stamps in 1986 and 1987, was on the field to say hello to head coach and general manager John Hufnagel and watch practice.

Meanwhile, former Stamps assistant coach Mike Benevides (2001-02) has asked for and been granted permission to attend camp next week as an observer. Benevides, who was most recently the head coach of the BC Lions, is scheduled to arrive on Sunday.
