So apparently teams get a fair bit of notice on these things, long enough to orchestrate trades to prepare. In Jones' statement he said he was told he failed a drug test on September 15. The suspension was official today as the League always announces disciplinary actions on Tuesdays. He tested positive for Dehydrochlormethyltestosterone.

Which is why I was wondering what Happened lol Drew Edwards wrote about it at 3 Down Nation: Quote The Edmonton Eskimos CEO and president Len Rhodes is walking back a Tweet he “liked” that was critical of Esks head coach Jason Maas. Drew’s Views (no relation) wrote: “I never liked Maas as a QB because he was a hothead and I like him even less as a coach.” The tweet showed up under Rhodes’s likes. https://3downnation.com/2017/09/19/esks-prez-likes-tweet-critical-coach-jason-maas-says-accident/ Edited September 20, 20177 yr by Jacquie

September 21, 20177 yr comment_292724 I wonder how many more guys now will go on the 6 game injury list in Sask to account for these new adds...seems as tho since Jones got busted for the secondary practice roster they had last year he is totally abusing the 6 game injury list. Bet my left nut too most are getting paid well above the practice roster minimum to keep them hanging around too...and I kinda like my left nut Be curious as to where they are cap-wise too...They did over pay for some marginal guys, and have a lot invested in some of their starters..even though Glenn is making low money they have to be pretty tight and all these signings kind of make you wonder
September 21, 20177 yr comment_292731 https://www.cfl.ca/2017/09/20/kevin-glenn-start-week-14/ Quote REGINA — Saskatchewan Roughriders head coach and GM Chris Jones told reporters Wednesday that Kevin Glenn will be the team’s starting quarterback in Week 14. The Riders take on the Calgary Stampeders at the new Mosaic Stadium on Sunday. Glenn missed the Riders’ 27-19 win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Week 13, while backup quarterback Brandon Bridge stepped in and threw three touchdown passes in his place.

They have a few players that are due to come off the injured list but may also add up to 8 from last week's game. I have no doubt most if their injuries are legit, but my question is what do they do with all the players when guys start to come off the 6 game,

September 22, 20177 yr comment_292964 I have heard from Regina radio here that Glenn makes a very modest salary, so they probably have a lot more space to spend than we would. But as to the Riders 6 game injury list...yes even the media has commented several times how many of those wounded seem to have no physical ailments whatsoever.

Even if he makes no more then 200k this year, that 200k was long gone in the off season. With kienan lefrance back (and if owens comes back) on the roster it only goes up. http://3downnation.com/2017/01/25/kevin-glenn-contract-relative-bargain-for-riders/

Even if he stays on the IR his bonus counts towards the cap in atleast one year of his deal. Even then I dont know i buy that chris jones would waste money on a move like that. but thats just my opinion.
