Hamilton Tiger-Cats expect veteran receiver Banks to play versus B.C. Lions
HAMILTON — Head coach June Jones expects to have one of his big-play performers back with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats’ offence.
Receiver Brandon Banks practised at full speed Wednesday as the Ticats prepared to host the B.C. Lions on Saturday afternoon. Banks has missed Hamilton’s last two games with a hamstring injury.
“Speedy, I think, is going to be fine,” Jones told reporters afterwards.
Banks is Hamilton’s leading receiver with 69 catches for 1,033 yards and seven TDs. He’s recorded eight 100-yard games this season.
