It might be hard to keep track of the numbers and who\u0027s in the game and who isn\u0027t when Ottawa Redblacks host Montreal Alouettes Friday.
Look for quarterback Nick Arbuckle to play the first half, then Tyrie Adams, Dustin Crum and, possibly, Jake Dunniway to play the remainder of the game.
“These pre-season games are a big deal,” Redblacks offensive co-ordinator Khari Jones said. “Practice is different — there’s no tackling, there’s no contact. You have to see how guys react to everything a real game has to offer. As much as we try to simulate that in practice, you need that game feel, you need the lights on.”Article content
