Blue Bombers roster - 2021-2022

See: Matt Nichols

The difference, Matt was finished. The bombers knew with the injury he had he was never going to compete at a high level again. And guess what, they were right.

I arrived in Winnipeg in time to watch yesterday's practice.

I spent a lot of time watching the O-Line.

When they divided into position groups, I saw Couture & Kolankowski split reps at centre. Kolankowski did a couple at LG and I saw Szott take 1 at centre. They were subbing players on a regular basis with the practice roster players all getting reps.

In 12 on 12, it was Coture & Kolankowski splitting reps. Couture linedup at TE for a couple of plays.

3rd down is suggesting Jefferson and Bryant won't play this week? I figured Adams would dress at his spot now that Wilcots was traded. If Bryant doesn't play, then are we going to a 4 Canadian OL this week?

That's a laughable example.

The question was what starter has lost their job to injury?  Nichols is the perfect example.  Another dude came in, proved better, and stole his job.  This is in doubt?

As for "finished", no one knew right after GC 2019 that Nichols was "finished".  When he went down he was ligthing up the league, making sweet deep balls, and putting away games in the 1st half.

Fans didn't know, but the team did.

So I guess it's an example with an asterisk.

How did Houston get on the field early in the year? Was Rose injured?

[M.O.A.B.]

I believe Houston won the field-side CB out of TC. Then when Rose struggled at the short-side early in the year, they switched. Houston was solid at the short-side before his injury.

I do not think Houston won a starting job out of camp. Someone got hurt, name escapes me, and Houston came in and was a keeper in his spot.

I guess your right, Glass was the starting field-side at CB on Week1. 

On Week4, Houston replaced Rose at the short-side CB and Rose was moved to field-side CB to replace Glass. Game log doesn't show Glass was injured during the game and not sure if he got injured during the practice week of Week4. But possibly, he was replaced because he was under-performing and was released a week after.

That's a big trust from coaches for Houston though being a DI to starting short-side CB.

Keep digging, the hole isn't quite deep enough yet.

Right it was Glass was the one I was thinking of. Something weird happened with him. He got released for some undisclosed reason. Did not sound like it was an injury.
