REGINA -- Corey Chamblin had his starter back Thursday. Darian Durant returned under centre with the Saskatchewan Roughriders after suffering a foot injury in last weeks 39-28 road win over the Toronto Argonauts. Durant had a walking boot on his foot earlier in the week and didnt practise before Thursday. Durant, 30, split snaps with the starting offence and performed well, Chamblin said. However, the Riders head coach is taking a wait-and-see approach regarding whether Durant will face the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Sunday at Mosaic Stadium. "Darian looked pretty good . . . you could tell he had a day off as far as his throwing but other than that he looked good," Chamblin said. "He says he feels like hes in that 85-90 per cent range and can tape it up and do some things and be ready to go. "But if he feels like hes limping and cant do what the gameplan says then he probably wont go. We want to make sure how healthy he is, if he felt any pain, does he feel like hes mobile enough and do we feel like hes mobile enough?" Backup Drew Willy also practised with the starters Thursday after seeing plenty of time with the No. 1 unit earlier this week with Durant out. "That was the good thing about it," Chamblin said. "When Darian didnt practise Day 1 it allowed Drew to get his reps in and that was pretty good for him." Durant has had a solid start to the season for the unbeaten Riders (3-0). He has completed 54-of-75 passes (72 per cent) for 674 yards with eight touchdowns and no interceptions and has a league-best efficiency rating of 135.1. Sophomore Willy has made one career CFL start, that being a 28-17 loss to Montreal last September. The former University of Buffalo star was 22-of-34 passing for 225 yards and a TD with two interceptions. Whoever starts against Hamilton will have the benefit of another reliable receiver in the lineup. Chamblin said veteran slotback Geroy Simon, a key off-season acquisition from B.C., will make his long-awaited Saskatchewan debut after missing the clubs first three games with a leg injury. "Superman will fly," Chamblin said of Simon, who traditionally strikes a Superman pose after each TD he scores. "What people dont understand is with Geroy you dont even notice him and not in a bad way. "Its like hes been here forever, hes woven himself in and just brings confidence to the guys and confidence to the quarterback knowing he has another set of sure hands. For the younger guys, its being around a legend because hes going to be a Hall of Famer one day and he helps them take their game to a new level." Simon, 37, is a two-time Grey Cup champion and six-time league all-star over his 14-year CFL career. Hes the all-time leader in receiving yards (15,787) and needs 29 catches to break Ben Cahoons league record of 1,017. Simon joins a Saskatchewan offence thats on a nice roll. The Riders lead the CFL in scoring (38 points per game) and rushing (173 yards) and are second in total yards (398.7). Running back Kory Sheets has a league-best 442 rushing yards, the highest three-game total to start a season in CFL history. Sheets ran for a career-high 178 yards against Toronto and will be key performer against a Hamilton defence allowing 147.3 yards per game rushing and 8.8 yards per run attempt. Hamiltons defence is also allowing 29.7 points per game as well. Sundays contest will also mark the return Kent Austin to Saskatchewan. Austin guided the Riders to a Grey Cup win in 89 as the starter before taking the club to another CFL title in 07 in his first season as a head coach. Two months later, Austin left Saskatchewan to become the offensive co-ordinator at his alma mater, Ole Miss, before being named Cornells head coach Jan. 26, 2010. Austin returned to the CFL on Dec. 17, 2012 when Hamilton hired him to be its head coach, GM and director of football operations. Vapormax Plus Black Cheap . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. --?Aaron Donald unbuckled his chin strap, yanked his helmet off and slammed it to the grass as he walked out of Levis Stadium late Monday night, in the late stages of a season opener that became increasingly unpleasant for his Los Angeles Rams.Donald, the Rams star defensive tackle, was ejected midway through the fourth quarter of a demoralizing 28-0 loss to the division-rival San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football, first for unnecessary roughness and then for making contact with an official.I just let emotions get the best of me, Donald said. No excuses.Already trailing 21-0 and seemingly frustrated by how the game had progressed, the Rams defense became overly physical with about seven minutes left.Middle linebacker Alec Ogletree pushed quarterback?Blaine Gabberts head to the ground after already making a tackle, prompting several 49ers to gather around him. Donald came racing in, grabbed receiver Quinton Patton by the back of the head and pushed his helmet off, leading to a 15-yard penalty.Donald then made inadvertent contact with the official, prompting the ejection.It was a dumb decision on my part,, Donald said.ddddddddddddHe definitely has to learn to control himself, Ogletree added. We definitely need him out there on the field. I hate to see him get kicked out. He is a great competitor, one of the guys. We are definitely going to stick behind him.Donalds penalties gifted the 49ers an additional 29 yards, which led to a 1-yard touchdown run from running back Carlos Hyde four plays later. The Rams committed 10 penalties in the game, giving away 102 yards.This is something of a trend.The Rams finished within the bottom eight in the NFL in penalty yards per game in each of Jeff Fishers first four seasons as coach, ranking 25th in 2015, 32nd in 2014, 29th in 2013 and 30th in 2012. During training camp, Fisher said his Rams sought a culture change in that regard -- but it all unraveled during the regular-season opener.Donald apologized to the team after the game.Its so frustrating, Fisher said. Hes just such a talented player. Hes frustrated, and he lost his poise there. You know, he wants to win. ' ' '
