Lions head coach Rick Campbell will be facing a familiar opponent in the Redblacks. Campbell was the inaugural head coach of the Redblacks in 2014 and coached them for six seasons, winning the Grey Cup in 2016.
"[My time in Ottawa] totally changed my life in a number of ways," Campbell told TSN1200 on Tuesday."I got my first coaching opportunity there and it was completely by scratch. When I got there, there were no coaches, no players, nothing. To go down Bank Street for a Grey Cup parade will be one of the biggest moments of my career no matter what happens."
"They're competitive and played a bunch of close games where they couldn't get over the hump," said Campbell."It's been so long since we've played and we really haven't had much interaction with Ottawa. It's obviously an important game for both teams with Ottawa trying to stay in the playoff hunt and us trying to get a good playoff position."
Hollins, 26, has been a revelation since signing with the Lions in March of 2022. The 6-foot receiver is third in the league with 879 receiving yards and six touchdowns.
