you are on the ball

Fyi. Goodrich was a protected player last year when he went to camp. Now that he has consumed his junior eligibility, he has signed a CFL contract. Last year, as a protected player, he didn't count against the numbers. IIRC, now he will.

Each CFL team can have up to 4 junior players in camp, and indeed they can practise with the club all year without using up a practise roster spot. (Kind of like extra P.R. Spots). Once they sign a CFL contract and/or play in a regular season game, they lose that special designation. (They are allowed to play in pre-season games without losing status)

The Rifles are hoping to see 4 more players invited to camp this year.
