Jones provides no specifics on why Riders released Carter
At a time when Roughrider fans were looking for answers, head coach Chris Jones didn’t provide any.
The head coach spoke with the media Sunday morning, roughly twelve hours after the club announced that they had released star receiver and fan favourite Duron Carter.
Jones said the club is constantly evaluating their talent and came to the conclusion that it was time to move on from Carter who spent time on both offence and defence this season and signed with the club in 2017.
“I went back and forth in my mind and yesterday about half time of the (Redblacks versus Alouettes) game decided to go ahead and call him and alert him that was the direction we were going,” Jones said.
