REGINA — The Saskatchewan Roughriders released wide receiver Prechae Rodriguez and placed returner Dominigue Dorsey on the nine-game injured list Tuesday.
The changes come two days after the Riders were beaten 31-2 by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Rodriguez has been a disappointment since being acquired in an off-season trade with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. The lanky wide receiver had 30 receptions for 375 yards and two touchdowns for the 6-4-0 Roughriders.
The Riders didn't disclose Dorsey's injury. He has struggled as a kick and punt returner since signing with the Riders as a free agent during the off-season. Dorsey was last among the league's regular kickoff and punt returners.
It appears that Hugh Charles will be promoted to full-time returner. The Riders' options at wide receiver include imports Cary Koch and Aaron Fairooz.
The Riders play host to the Calgary Stampeders on Friday.
