It also helped that we had a real long drive to start the 4th... CGY didn't have many opportunities on O

And exactly when we needed it. One of the best things about that win is that it was in front of an almost full house plus a lot of drama. People remember that sort of thing when the home team looks dead but somehow revives enough to win in the last minutes.

I think he started the season well enough but lately I've been missing Wilson more and more.

Agree. Teams played him like kyrie and he did well. Teams adjusted and he hasn’t since.

Saw a post on twitter last night from Malcolm Thompson. Sorta sounded like he'd been released. Anyone else see that?

Maybe recovering at home. If he’s expected to miss the season it’s pretty common. although if he’s also behind ba and Hallett in recovering he’s likely coming back to face a pr spot any way.

That could be in regards to anything...staff likes him here so doubt he was cut loose...and dont think his injury is season ending..he seems fine on sidelines

What was the tweet? 
 

His last tweet sounds like someone  close to him died. 
 

 

That's the jist I got from that too

I am wondering if we are taking Brandon Alexander perhaps a week early to be our 6th DB ... I do not know how banged up our starting 5 in the defensive backfield. We rarely discuss the little dings and dents afflicting any particular player. Rotating in will not be as taxing/straining as starting and he will not have to dig as deep.

yeah...easing him as the extra would be a good way to get him up to game speed...dude can play corner and half, and also has SAM experience too....I dunno what the heck going on in the Hammer but swinging a deal for Darby, with BA back would really solidify our back end

I’d be on board for sure

Maybe Brady O's ding in the last game was perhaps slight and more precauitionarry than a serious dent. Were they concerned about a possible concuss?

I do not think Augustine has hit his stride yet but I do not mind seeing him start Sunday. I am expecting Olivera though.

I really love how Oliveria was playing. Tough yards. He averaged 7.5 yards per carry against Calgary but only had a long of 10. That means he was getting 7-8 yards almost every play. Really puts your O in a good spot when you’re dealing with second and short.

Brady looks like a Harris clone recently.  By that I mean he's running hard and running people over 

agreed...he has looked totally different than he did the first part of the yr.....maybe just needed to find his way a bit...figure what he is

I dunno... A lot of people around here (Al, I'm looking at you) said Oliveira was too slow and not ready to be a pro football player and the Bombers made a huge mistake and that we needed to find a new RB. 

Again, the Bombers were patient and let him figure it out... And it APPEARS like he's found his way. Too early to tell for sure what his career will be, but it's at least trending in the right direction.

WINNIPEG, MB., August 30, 2022 - The Winnipeg Blue Bombers today announce the club has signed American linebacker DeJuan Cooper and American receiver Jaivon Heiligh to the practice roster.

What the actual heck does this mean?

Maybe the sorting order is wrong and it's add to active, transfer to suspended, delete from suspended, add to free agent?

If I was to guess I'd say he came up here a few days ago and was placed on the suspended list.

The team either didn't have a roster spot or he was placed in Covid protocol. 

He was then removed from the suspended list and then added to the practice roster.
