The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are nearing a sellout for Thursday’s home opener but whether fans see receiver Nic Demski on the field is still to be determined.
Demski missed Tuesday’s closed-door practice, according to the official injury report, and is now questionable to face the Hamilton Tiger-Cats due to an ankle injury. Demski was a full participant in their first practice of the week on Monday.
Demski had just two catches for 28 yards in their season-opening victory against the Calgary Stampeders last week.
He’s the only new addition to the injury report but defensive lineman De’Shaan Dixon has already been ruled out with a hamstring injury and has been placed on the six-game injured list.
