According to this, Jason Armstead asked for a trade earlier in the season. And i know this is true, because on the local news here in Saskatchewan, Tillman did an interview after the trade, and said that Jason wanted to be the featured guy, and that wasnt going to happen being behind Dominguez and Flick. However, i wish him luck, cuz he went to my favorite team in the East!!!
Was it bad timing, yes and no. Yes, because the riders record is 6-2. No, because you can always improve your team, and everyone in Sask. is high on Corey Holmes, and a young Canadian receiver. And it also wasnt neccessarily bad timing because the riders are going into the bye-week so both guys will get a chance to learn the offence.
