Apparently Reggie White told the Bombers after camp that he would hang around on the PR for a week but if they didn't have a spot on the active roster for him after that, he had to leave the team and take care of his family... via MOS on the CJOB coaches show

That makes lots of sense. Though I’d think they could’ve been giving him his full salary still.

Knowing that they should have put him on the 1 game and stuck Mitchell on the PR, at least White showed up ready to play.

Lawler now 3-11 record in games he's played for other CFL teams.  

His career record with Nichols, Collaros and Brown....34-8. 

6-17 with any other QB's including Streveler.

 

 

Lawler's a Money Player. He doesn't play well in championhip games. He's a Money Player in the sense that he just follows the money trail after every contract. There's a difference with guys like Ken Ploen, Jackie Parker, Warren Moon or Doug Flutie. They always seemed to bring their best performances in their biggest games. You could always count on them to perform to the best of (if not more) of their abilities. Lawler just goes where he'll get paid. The angry Lawler we see after every catch is such an act.

For what its worth i work with a guy who is buddies with a relative of Oliveira, and he was told Brady's going to be out 4-6 weeks with a sprained shoulder.

Update:

Oliveira is feeling much better than expected over the last 24 hours and may possibly only miss 1 game. He apparently said that he even hopes to suit up this weekend, but i would think thats highly unlikely. Its a long season and im sure the Bombers would err on the side of caution with him, especially with how Peterson looked.

My conclusion: Brady is Wolverine.

I guess if they thought he was worth his full salary they would have kept him on the active roster

100%. Its interesting but we will probably never know more than we do now.

And Cooley.

Situation is kind of bizarre though.  Unless he had some extreme pain going they must have had some indication on initial assessment of the PT's/sideline docs that there is structural issue.

Awesome pick. We aren't going full doman or any thing, but the bands we've got for the game stuff so far are awesome picks.

Could have been less serious than everyone thought. And they just rested him as precaution. No one from the Bomber org has ever addressed the seriousness of the situation. The "missing multiple weeks" narrative came from one person as far as I can tell. One person who is continuously incorrect about all things CFL.
