Roughriders enter bye week looking to resolve their road struggles
TORONTO — Ed Gainey has plenty of time to relish his record-setting performance.
Gainey had a club-record four interceptions Sunday in leading the Saskatchewan Roughriders past the B.C. Lions 41-8 at Mosaic Stadium. The picks were his first of the season and nearly doubled the six-year veteran’s career total (nine).
Saskatchewan (3-4) earned its first win over a West Division rival but won’t play again until Aug. 25 when it visits Edmonton (7-0).
What’s more, Gainey’s banner day came with his 10-month-old son Grayson in the stands. And the 27-year-old defensive back had the infant in his arms when presented the game ball in the Riders’ dressing room.
