Overview

  • Dru Brown will miss his second straight game due to a hip injury suffered in the season opener, confirming Crum’s second CFL start.
  • Crum guided the offence to a 20-12 win over Calgary last week, snapping Ottawa’s two-game skid.
  • Daniel Adeboboye, who rushed for 96 yards on 10 carries in Week 3, will start ahead of William Stanback to bolster the ground attack.
  • Ottawa’s defence tops the league with seven forced fumbles and four recoveries, reflecting coordinator William Fields’s aggressive scheme.
  • Toronto enters Sunday night’s contest at 0-3 as veteran Nick Arbuckle makes his first start against the Redblacks and 100th career appearance.
