Four CFL teams have lost their no. 1 quarterbacks to injury

B.C. lost starter Vernon Adams Jr. in the first quarter of its 19-9 home win over the Saskatchewan Roughriders. That made the Lions the fourth CFL team this season to lose its No. 1 quarterback to injury.

“I’m really proud that [Evans] stepped in like that,” Campbell, the Lions’ head coach/co-GM, told reporters after Saturday’s game. “I’m glad we got a guy we can rely on and win games with. Harris suffered a tibial plateau fracture in his right knee during Saskatchewan’s 33-31 overtime loss to Calgary on July 15. The injury required surgery but the Riders haven’t ruled out Harris returning before season’s end.

Perhaps no team has been hit harder with injuries at quarterback than the Ottawa Redblacks, who’ve lost both veteran Jeremiah Masoli and youngster Tyrie Adams to season-ending ailments. Adams was hurt while leading the club to a 26-7 win over Edmonton on June 30 in his first CFL start.
