Riders veterans find joy in unique training camp
Despite a camp filled with restrictions and smouldering days, members of the Saskatchewan Roughriders found joy in returning to the field.
Thursday marked the final day of practice during the Riders 2021 CFL training camp.
While he’s been to many NFL and CFL training camps in his career, 39-year-old Jon Ryan is still finding joy in it, especially after a year-and-a-half away from football.
“There’s definitely more yesterdays than tomorrows in my career, that’s for sure, going on 18 years. I think that’s part of the reason I’m just taking it all in, just enjoying it and just having a lot of fun – having more fun this year than I’ve ever had before. That’s part of it knowing there’s not too many of these left,” the punter said. “I’m here to have fun. Winning is fun so we have to win some games but when the fun stops, then I’ll be done.”
