Owens, Richardson shine in Riders 37-12 victory over Montreal
The Flying Hawaiian finally took flight in Regina Friday night.
After a long offseason marred by a nagging injury and setbacks, Chad Owens started his second game of the season and the first in front of the home crowd.
“Rider nation is for real. It’s a fun place to play. I feel bad for the opponents coming here … tonight was beautiful,” he said. “I was out there having fun, we were out there having fun, we got the win and that’s all that matters.
And Owens was a big part of that win. He caught for 114 yards and a touchdown and rushed for 14 as the Roughriders blew past Darian Durant and the Montreal Alouettes 37-12.
