Miller Jr. played well down the stretch for the #Riders. He will man one of the open LB spots next to Thurman that were vacated due to free agency. #NextManUp

I guess Mario Alford’s time in Rider green is over. He had an excellent tenure in Sask but his age was beginning to show. Letcher Jr. is an interesting replacement. #Riders

Is this signing part of Jeremy O’Day’s pivot after having lost Carney & Baldonado? I hope he’s not finished. #Riders

Hey! Can someone wake up Jeremy O’Day! After losing Carney I thought he’d pivot to re-signing up and comer Baldonado - I guessed wrong. Yikes! He better have some studs signed from down south that he is counting on to replace these losses. #Riders Looks like Ottawa is RidersEast.

And another one bites the dust! Damn. The #Riders D has taken a huge hit today losing 3 important starters in Reavis, Allen, & Carney. I knew O’Day would have trouble re-signing everyone but I thought they would keep at least one of these big 3 on D. Yikes! Not a good day.

Damn, this one hurts. Allen was an up and coming defensive star who got better & better each year. He is also a ratio breaker. Tough to lose a great Canadian player like this. #Riders

A.J. Allen led all Canadians in the CFL with 87 defensive tackles in 2025. The 27-year-old linebacker developed and displayed his potential with Saskatchewan. Ottawa secures a certified ratio-breaker in his prime. https://t.co/IyYej18LrD #Ottawa #Redblacks #RNation #Riders

I was impressed with the strength of Hughes leg in his FG attempts & kickoffs. I suspect the #Riders will release Lauther & save $25,000.He has been a long time Rider & has kicked well, but last year saw a huge drop in performance. At 35 with leg strength declining, time to go.

O’Day’s comments are quite telling. It sounds like the chances of Ouellette returning is likely, but Reavis, AJ Allen, Alford and Carney all sound doubtful. All were very important contributors to the Grey Cup championship. Definitely are rooting for CJ & AJx2 to come back.

Sad news: Former @sskroughriders defensive back Steve Dennis has passed away at age 74. With 33 interceptions, he is tied for fourth in team history. He entered the Plaza of Honour in 2007. Tremendous player and a great guy.

The signing of Johnson has solidified a real good receiving corps for the #Riders. With Meyers signing down south, Bane being released, & Robustelli & Neild still FAs, this signing of KeeSean Johnson definitely is great news. He was Harris’ go to guy on 3rd Down.

Jeremy O’Day is hard at work today getting important pieces to this #Riders Grey Cup Champion squad resigned. Jameer Thurman was a huge reason why our Defense played so well last year. The middle of our D is again solid. #Leadership

While visiting my daughter Tatum & our son-in-law Dallas in Rocky Mountain House, Alberta, we travelled west to take in the Rockies on New Year’s Day. It was a great way to kick in the new year! #HappyNewYear2026

Spent my New Year’s NOT watching football as I have for the last 50 years or so; instead I was in the Rockies with my family. Beautiful day! A great start to 2026!
