The 31-year-old Elimimian is currently tied for fourth in the CFL with 26 tackles and has been a consistently excellent performer during his nine-year career. The Lions are coming off a come-from-behind victory over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers led by the return of quarterback Travis Lulay. But as they head to Ottawa on Friday night, they’ll have to find a way without another of their veteran leaders.
