Riders sign Chris Garrett!

[holoman]

as per Lee Jones

[IC Khari]

A backup to Sheets and a back up to Simpson ... only difference is he has a chance to be on a good team now

[voodoochylde]

Such a damn shame to see him in green.  Best of luck to Garrett.

[saskbluefan]

Good for him. 

[kelownabomberfan]

good luck Chris.  Break a...I mean...I wish you all the best.

[braddman19]

Good that he gets a chance to be on a winning team, unfortunately, the color is just terrible.  Green bleah

[SPuDS]

good luck Garrett, ya kinda got a raw deal here but thats football..

question is tho... ford or garrett?

[voodoochylde]

I'd rather have Garrett on the roster myself.

[Mr Dee]

I'm not going to pretend to know the inner details of the decision of Ford over Garrett, but I agree, Id rather have had Garrett.

[SPuDS]

me too.. but i always thought ford was the better blocker and seeing that either was a backup at that point, blocking was probably more important...

#Bombers running back Will Ford will start in place of the injured Chad Simpson (foot) in Sunday's Banjo Bowl vs the #Riders. #CFL

 

 

Ugh .. really wish we had Garrett still on the roster now.

[Atomic]

I hope we use Woodson

Conspiracy theory time: I wonder if Chad's been hurt for longer than this and has just hidden it from the coaches and trainers knowing Chris Garrett was waiting in the wings. As soon as Garrett was no longer an option, he could disclose the injury. After all, we know what happened the last time Garrett went in for an injured back. This is based on absolutely nothing.

[DR. CFL]

He had problems last season with a foot injury. Missed a lot of practice and often had to come out of a game for a spell. If he has an issue with turf toe it often never completely goes away.

Buck Woodson?  I hope we use Buck Volny.

[Atomic]

Buck Woodson needs to get his shot.  I feel like he has some good talent that isn't being utilized.  Buck Ford is just some guy who won't be here next year.  We already know what Buck Volny can do.

Maybe it has to do with his TD celebration?

 

Maybe we will find out Sunday.  Maybe.
