Tuesday’s opening of free agency was decision day for Riders GM Jeremy O’Day. Should he wait and hope that linebacker Cam Judge would eventually return to the fold? Or, in O’Day’s words, “attack free agency”? He felt that attacking was prudent. “At a certainly point we have to, maybe, eliminate some of our risk,” O’Day […]
The talking is about to end and the action will begin. CFL free agency officially opens Tuesday at 11:00am. At that point every free agent will be available to move wherever he wants.
