The 29-year-old took a hit to the head from Calgary defensive back Tunde Adeleke in the Riders loss to the Stampeders in Week 14.

That sparked a debate among players on Twitter. Adeleke was penalized for unnecessary roughness and Roosevelt needed attention and left the game without returning.

He paces Saskatchewan with 929 receiving yards this season on 64 receptions and seven touchdowns.
