Gonna be a great game.

Wonder if Acklin will be able to play. Heard he left the hospital in good health.

Likely will have to wait till players return to practice / injury reports to know more . No doubt its a good thing he was able to be released from hospital and is home with his gf and 3 month old baby girl poppy now . His gf posted a cute photo to her instagram story yesterday of Jaelon resting with Poppy on his lap .

I’m stoked for this re-match, it’s in my city. I was thinking of going, but it’s sold out and going to be packed, and I’m not a fan of the venue they’re playiing (should be at Starlight field instead, which is just down the hill from me!).

Looks like likely Keaton Bruggeling gets a chance to play more with injuries at WR’s

Acklin probably wants to play and is healthy, but because it’s a head injury he has to sit out.
Ottawa also has lost Addison and Pimpleton.
A couple of receivers from the practice roster called in, plus they signed Ffrench who was cut last year

Likely makes sense they would be cautious with Acklin .

Acklin is 6 gamed now but highly doubt he will be out for 6 games but obviously better to be cautious/ take things day by day when it comes to concussions
