The Lions put out on their social media channels on Sunday that Burnham had hurt the wrist and promised more details Monday. TSN’s Farhan Lalji reported on his social media Sunday that X-rays showed a fracture and that Burnham is “expected to miss some time, but undetermined how long.”Article content
McEvoy declined comment Monday morning on the severity of the injury, saying instead that he was waiting for an update from a doctor later in the day. B.C. has already qualified for the playoffs, so making sure that Burnham is ready for the post-season will undoubtedly be important. The Lions have five regular season games remaining, starting with a visit to B.C Place this Friday from the Ottawa Redblacks . The Lions’ final regular season game is Oct. 28, when the Winnipeg Blue Bombers come to town.NEXT GAME
