Riders secure 3 free agents in busy week before Christmas
The Roughriders free agent wish list got a little shorter this week.
The club wrapped up three pending free agents including receiver Patrick Lavoie, defensive tackle Zack Evans and defensive back Louchiez Purifoy.
Purifoy was the latest announcement, made Wednesday morning, with Evans’ announcement coming Tuesday and Lavoie’s the day before.
Purifoy came to the Riders in August of 2018 after being released by the Ottawa Redblacks. He made 31 defensive tackles and three interceptions in eleven games in the green and white.
