Quarterback Nathan Rourke will return from the absence of two-game due to a oblique injury, when he guides the BC Lions in Montreal to face Alouetts on Saturday.
Rourke landed for 573 yards and four tuchdowns to start faster, while adding 11 carry for 112 yards in two matches. Unfortunately for Lions (1-3), he started 1–1, losing both games with “Kid Canada” on the sideline and backup Jeremia Masoli under the center.
Lions head coach Bak Pierce said on Thursday, “Nathan will begin for us. Nathan will go.” “That looks good throughout the week. He has given a better answer every day (in practice) every day, which is a positive thing.”
While returning to Rourke, Montreal (3–1) will be without quarterback Davis Alexander for the second straight week due to a left hamstring injury.
McLeod Bethel-Theampson will get a node after completing 24 out of 41 passes for 203 yards with a touchdown and two interception in Hamilton last Sunday in Hamilton last Sunday. The 37-year-old also denied a late-game Snap that turned into a touchdown for Tiger-Cat.
According to the Montreal Gazette, Bethel-Thampson said, “It was a night that I wanted that according to the Montreal Gazette, Bethel-Theampson said.” I will take it better and know that there is better football to play further. I am excited to show what I can do; What can we do as a crime. We are very, very dangerous when we put all this together.
“I was disappointed (against Hamilton). At any time you have an aggressive performance as you’re going to be disappointed. I was not happy with my performance. I was not happy with my performance. Losing our performance. It’s never fun to lose. You are never fun to lose. You put in work and trust bounces that I have to come back with a big and strong mentality.”
Jason Mass, the head coach of Alouettes, said Alexander’s possibility will be returned after the team returned from a week to host Toronto Argonauts on July 17.
Montreal on Tuesday signed veteran wide receiver Alexander Hallins. He was released by Edmonton Elks and first spent three sessions with Lions, including a stellar campaign in 2023 as CFL West All-Star.
