There has probably not been any season like the 2021 that is about to kick off on Thursday night.
So far the season, at least in Saskatchewan and probably the rest of the league to varying extents, is the season of the Torn Achilles. The Riders had the tough luck to have four torn Achilles in 15 minutes at a practice before regular camp began, but other teams have also suffered a spate of Achilles.
All of this points to the problems of trying to maintain a fitness regime for 18 months in the midst of a pandemic. It is difficult to maintain such a program with no real idea of when, never mind if, the CFL was going to be back.
