The Riders Green and White scrimmage was the closest the team will get to game action before the season opener. And it showed the Riders still have some work to do. “Initially, I would say we need to get in better shape,” says Head Coach Craig Dickenson. “I think that was the one thing I […]
August 6th is still a couple of weeks away, but if all goes the way Saskatchewan Roughriders head coach Craig Dickenson wants it to, he will be starting two Canadian receivers on opening night. Dickenson says it is something he thinks will be done because of the talent they have in that area. “We feel […]
The third piece of the Roughriders receiving core is back for one more year. Jordan Williams-Lambert signed a one-year contract extension after a 2019 season split between the Riders and NFL camp with the Chicago Bears.

With the return of Jordan Williams-Lambert to the Riders, Head Coach Craig Dickenson made one thing clear–when Williams-Lambert goes onto the roster, an American receiver will come off. Manny Arceneaux is an American receiver, and thus his job is at risk. How does he feel about the Riders adding another chef into the kitchen, as […]
Freshly back in the fold, receiver Jordan Williams-Lambert won’t play for the Riders Saturday. “He looks good,” says Head Coach Craig Dickenson. “He’s still learning the system obviously…it’s only day one for him. But he’s running well and he looks like he’s in shape. That’s very encouraging.” If not Saturday, when is the first for […]
It was thought Jordan Williams-Lambert was returning to the Saskatchewan Roughriders last week after being released by the NFL’s Chicago Bears, but that was not the case.
