Shocker in Rider Nation: Roughriders release Weston Dressler and John Chick
The Saskatchewan Roughriders dropped a bombshell on Rider Nation late Thursday afternoon.
The team announced they’ve released long-time fan favourites in receiver Weston Dressler and defensive end John Chick.
Chick rejoined the Riders prior to the 2013 season, while Dressler returned halfway through 2014 after spending training camp with the Kansas City Chiefs of the NFL.
Both players have been with the Riders for their entire CFL careers before being let go. Both had recently signed long-term deals with the team.
