Although CFL teams aren\u2019t obligated to declare their final roster decisions until Saturday, Corey Mace offered an early peek behind the curtain.<\/p>\n
\u201cRolan Milligan Jr.<\/a> and Trevor Harris are probably going to make the team,\u201d the Saskatchewan Roughriders\u2019 Head Coach said lightheartedly on Friday, following the final practice of Coors Light Training Camp.<\/p>\n Aside from the automatic choices, such as the aforementioned duo, Mace said there will be \u201clong, long, long\u201d discussions about who to keep and who to cut.<\/p>\n The deliberations will include the entire coaching and front office, led by Mace and Vice-President of Football Operations and General Manager Jeremy O\u2019Day.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s debate, and there should be,\u201d Mace said. \u201cIf there\u2019s never any debate, that means we didn\u2019t have good players.<\/p>\n \u201cI know that we did bring in a bunch of good guys who are pushing at multiple positions and multiple spots on the roster, so it\u2019s a healthy debate.<\/p>\n \u201cI tell these guys at the beginning of camp: \u2018Make one of us stand on the table for you\u2019 when today comes. I think a lot of guys did that.\u201d<\/p>\n Brayden Schager hopes to be in that category.<\/p>\n \u201cI think I\u2019ve had my three-week audition and proved to them my abilities and have been able to put some good stuff on tape,\u201d the 23-year-old quarterback said<\/a>. \u201cNow you take a little step back for a second.<\/p>\n \u201cIf I\u2019m given the opportunity, it\u2019s right back to work. I\u2019ll come into work every single day with the same mentality of trying to be the best player that I can be.\u201d<\/p>\n The Roughriders finished camp with four quarterbacks \u2014 Harris (the 2025 Grey Cup MVP), Schager, Jack Coan<\/a> and Tommy Stevens.<\/p>\n There is precedent for the Green and White carrying four signal-callers into the regular season, but that decision hadn\u2019t been made as of late Friday morning.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve got to sit down and hammer through all the stuff,\u201d Mace said. \u201cYou\u2019d like to say \u2018of course,\u2019 but you can\u2019t promise anything. We always make the best decision for the team.\u201d<\/p>\n The team won\u2019t reconvene until early in the second week of June. Saskatchewan has a bye in Week 1 of the regular season.<\/p>\n The Roughriders\u2019 season opener is set for June 13 (5 p.m., Mosaic Stadium) against the B.C. Lions. The 2025 Grey Cup championship banner is to be unveiled during a pre-game ceremony.<\/p>\n
