News after last week's win was more of the same for Bob Dyce and the Ottawa Redblacks: three more key players will miss significant time with injuries.
PublishedNews after last week's win was more of the same for head coach Bob Dyce and the Ottawa Redblacks: Three more key players will miss significant time with injuries.
“That’s kind of been this season for us,” said Dyce to reporters on Tuesday. “Both of our starting cornerbacks began the season on the six-game and filled in and played exceptionally well. We’ve lost starting tackles, we lost a starting guard, Frankie was down for a number of weeks. This is no different; our expectations are exceptionally high.”
“He’s had testing and scans, and everything is moving in the right direction. When it comes to things like concussion protocol, there’s no set time ," Dyce said. “He’s likely going to go on the six-game injured list and we’ll go forward from there. It’s another situation where it isn’t a season-ending injury, but he’s not going to be able to play the next number of weeks,” said Dyce,
“They came out of training camp, we were extremely happy with them. They’ve continued on that path and have continued to get better. It’s a great opportunity for those two young guys to step into the roster.”Santos-Knox, who has 53 tackles, two sacks and an interception in his second season with the Redblacks, is expected to miss a lot of time but his injury is not necessarily considered season-ending.
