Quarterback Davis Alexander led the Montreal Alouettes to a comeback victory over the Toronto Argonauts on Thursday, but suffered a leg injury as he ran the winning touchdown into the end zone in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n
As Alexander scampered into the end zone from 10 yards out to make the score 26-25, he grabbed at the back of his leg as he crossed the goal line.<\/p>\n
He waived off the training staff and stayed out to attempt a two-point conversion that was not successful.<\/p>\n
“It’s a tough thing. I mean, it’s something that we’re going to have to evaluate and figure out what to do from here. Obviously I’ll be out for a little bit,” Alexander told TSN’s Matthew Scianitti after the game.<\/p>\n
After the Alouettes forced the Argonauts into a late turnover, Caleb Evans came out to finish the game at quarterback while Alexander remained on the sidelines.<\/p>\n
Alexander returned to action on Thursday after missing two games with a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n
With the victory he ran his personal record to 8-0, tying CFL legend Danny McManus for the best start to a career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Quarterback Davis Alexander led the Montreal Alouettes to a comeback victory over the Toronto Argonauts on Thursday, but…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5128,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[437],"tags":[49,48,521,522,520,82],"class_list":["post-5127","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cfl","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-canadian-football-league","tag-canadianfootballleague","tag-cfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5127","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5127"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5127\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5128"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5127"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5127"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
