#Bombers are not trading for Adams, and have not yet explored other options at QB. Will wait to see full extent of Nichols injury before making any moves. #wfp
C'mon, the Bombers freaking know Nichols status.
Considering the position they find themselves the Bombers would do ok with Glenn or Willy at this point, hanging in at .500 till Nichols returns....if he returns.
Yah, you'd really think so, if Nichols was okay they'd want to get the news out asap so it didn't deter season ticket sales. As it stands I imagine ticket sales have come to a screeching halt.
Apparently so, I haven't read any negative reports on his pass-catching and he looked like a viable receiver at the 2017 Combine when he participated in those drills.
A few extra Augustine highlights on the CJOB site.

Good Blue Bomber podcast from Doug Brown, towards the end of the show he discusses the missing depth chart issue and explains some of the potential reasoning for not providing one, which might be related to the rash of retirements we've seen this year.

According to O'Shea, Clarke was cut to give a few young DB's more playing time to evaluate. I guess Clarke was fairly "meh" and he's confident they can do much better.
