‘He was a living legend’: Riders remember George Reed
The memory of George Reed already looms over Mosaic Stadium.
Reed, one of the greatest CFL players to ever step onto a field, died on Sunday at 83-years-old, a day before his 84th birthday.
The Saskatchewan Roughriders, with whom Reed spent his entire career, honoured the legend with graphics and photos of the hall of famer on the large video screen at Mosaic Stadium on Monday.
A memorial of flowers grew at the feet of Reed’s statue outside of the stadium.
