Saskatchewan Roughriders fans have seen\u00a0A.J. Ouellette and Trevor Harris tackling each other during post-game interviews with TSN in 2025.<\/p>\n
“He did it last year during a game\u00a0and then he\u00a0kept doing it. Finally, there was a game where I was out and he was getting interviewed,\u00a0I was like: ‘This is my turn.” Harris detailed.\u00a0“I started crawling around like a gorilla waiting to tackle him.\u00a0Pay attention this week, I’m going to fold him.”<\/p>\n
Harris and Ouellette played on the same CFL team for the first time last season with the Riders.<\/p>\n
“Don’t tell him, but I love that guy — he’s awesome. He’s\u00a0one of my great buddies here and\u00a0I think we’re wired the same. We’re both from an hour-and-a-half away. Small-town guys, small-town football. He went to a super small high school\u00a0and I did as well,” Harris explained.<\/p>\n
“Truthfully, my son was\u00a0his biggest fan\u00a0in Toronto and it annoyed me. Then all of a sudden, we had a chance to get A.J.\u00a0I got on the phone with him and was able to talk to him. He’s been as advertised and more because as good a football player he is, he’s a better person and he’s a better teammate, which is saying a lot.\u00a0I think he’s as good as it gets up here as a running back. He’s somebody that I’ll probably be in touch with until the day I die — I love that guy.”<\/p>\n
The six-foot-three,\u00a0212-pound quarterback has suited up for the Riders for six games so far in 2025.\u00a0He has completed 75.9 percent of his passes for 1,894 yards with\u00a011 touchdowns and\u00a0four interceptions. Among all\u00a0CFL quarterbacks<\/a>, Harris is leading the pack\u00a0with the highest completion percentage\u00a0(75.9) and\u00a0ranks\u00a0second in touchdown passes\u00a0with 11.<\/p>\n
