We don't know one way or another, but what we do know is that Grant was not considered a priority. Would we have liked to have him back? Who knows. There were rumblings long before Walters was blowing the cash to re-sign guys that Grant was going to have to wait to see if there was money left for him though.

(BTW it was a dumb play call by Buck that got Grant nicked - a hand-off up the gut into high traffic on 2nd and long). IMHO Grant did not appear as lethal after returning from that injury. Took him a long time to rehab and might have had a setback after trying to come back early. No one tougher. Janarion has great vision but if you can't plant your foot to make the cut you're just not as elusive. Of course our team blocking on return teams was **** last year too ... Honestly, Argos taking a bit of a flyer unless they worked him out prior. If he is 100% healthy with nothing lingering, he is electric.

Depending on his cost, potentially a low risk/high reward signing. I'm not sure I've ever been more afraid of a kick returner in the CFL.

I agree it took a bit for him to get up to game speed after he returned. But by playoffs I thought he was fine.

So painful we lost that game.

But does he still have it? Guess we will find out. Love the guy but that would benefit the Argo's, soooooo nope.

They said they took inspiration for colours from the province so I assume the black represents the pit of despair that is Saskatchewan.
May 31, 20241 yr comment_698309 For real those are so bad. Looks like a monster energy drink or an original Xbox loading screen was the theme. Also companies should be fined big time for making football pants with no side stripes. I hope the Bombers don’t come out with crap like this, those hockey jersey alts were bad enough.

Intact teeth....if by black broken off nubs you mean intact teeth....then yea for sure. Rider jerseys are rubber boots black, Those are the wedding rubber boots...green ones are every day wear. I Rorketon Saskatchewan, as I type this, there is a Rider fan in the outhouse looking up what obsidian is, and then smacking his head saying "why didn't they just say rubber boot black" Edited May 31, 20241 yr by GCn20

May 31, 20241 yr comment_698370 One thinks those jerseys were crafted just to wring every last dollar out of the overall pockets of people of Sask. Maybe they let Craig Dickenson doodle them up on his way out the door! Lol!

I can't tell because the CFL stats are so shitty, they don't mention the Grant TD, just that he had a punt return for 92 yards, which I assume was for a TD. He also had a big whiff in that game where the ball went between his legs on a kickoff, giving BC the ball on the 3 yard line.
