Roughriders shut down Fantuz and Simpson
The Saskatchewan Roughriders nine-game injured list may have set a record on Tuesday.
Andy Fantuz and Barrin Simpson's names were added to the list which has now grown to 17 players.
The two players will now join quarterback Darian Durant on the sideline to watch the final two games of the regular season.
“The thing we need to do in order to get players on our practice roster is (have them) be on the nine-game. It gives us an opportunity to look at younger players,” explains Head Coach Ken Miller.
