Justin McGriff was one of the new players the Hamilton Tiger-Cats were very eager to watch this season. since he’s a really fascinating player.
Head coach Scott Milanovich states, “He was one of a few guys that were going to have a decent opportunity to win a starting spot (at receiver).
Therefore, it was terrible to witness him being taken off the field during practice on Tuesday due to a leg injury.
The lanky, athletic ball catcher has missed training camp twice in a row due to a calf issue. He lost the entire season to an odd off-field accident last year.
To what extent is this one serious?
At this moment, Scott Milanovich answers, “I don’t know.”
He claims that the injury, which seemed to be a hyperextension, was sustained on the leg that McGriff had hurt the previous year. On Wednesday, the receiver was scheduled for an MRI.
The 23-year-old Utah State receiver, who stands six feet six inches tall, complements the Ticats’ goal of adding size at receiver. Milanovich and general manager Ed Hervey have talked about it as a top concern.
According to the coach, he’s just hoping for the best with the injury at this time.
