It's certainly been a hectic week for Jarious Jackson. Jackson was named Edmonton's interim head coach Monday after head coach and general manager Chris Jones was fired.
Jackson was named Edmonton's interim head coach Monday after head coach and general manager Chris Jones was fired. The move followed the Elks' 37-34 home loss to the Ottawa Redblacks on Sunday night.
Dru Brown's 29-yard completion to Kalil Pimpleton set up Lewis Ward's 38-yard field goal on the game's final play. It was Edmonton's fourth straight loss by three points and third consecutive via a walk-off field goal. And while Pimpleton led the way with four catches for 154 yards and a TD, Dominique Rhymes and Justin Hardy also figured prominently in Ottawa's aerial attack.
Earlier this week, the Elks hired Almondo Sewell as their defensive line coach. The 37-year-old was a defensive lineman with Edmonton and helped the club win a Grey Cup in 2015 under Jones.
