‘A Lot of Waiting’: A Glimpse Into Final Cut Day of CFL Training Camp

Corey Mace said the team reset its standard as competition intensified in the running back room and roster decisions approached.

  • The Saskatchewan Roughriders concluded their three-week training camp on Friday, cutting 19 players on Saturday to finalize their active roster for the 2026 CFL season.
  • Head coach Corey Mace emphasized high standards throughout camp, stating, "They are not going to accept anything less than the expectation and the bars that we have reset for ourselves."
  • While the club retained all four quarterbacks, running back Mario Anderson was among 19 players released; the team also added 13 players to the practice roster.
  • Special teams underwent significant changes as Oscar Chapman secured the punting job over Jesse Mirco, who was released; Brett Lauther was replaced as kicker in the off-season.
  • The Roughriders face a Week 1 bye before beginning their Grey Cup defence on June 13 against the B.C. Lions at Mosaic Stadium.
