The Calgary Stampeders will welcome Kamar Jorden back to the lineup when the club hosts the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Saturday, according to the team’s depth chart.

The 32-year-old caught 39 passes for 539 yards and three touchdowns over seven games to start the year but has missed the past three due contests to a hamstring injury he suffered against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. He should provide a nice boost for Calgary’s receiving corps to help counter the Riders getting Shaq Evans and Duke Williams back in the lineup.

Jorden earned West Division all-star honours in 2018 despite playing just nine full games before suffering a season-ending knee injury in the Labour Day Classic. Though he played barely half the season, Jorden still ranked fourth in the West with 944 receiving yards and he was sixth in the division with six touchdown catches.

The Bowling Green product missed the entire 2019 regular season as he completed his knee injury rehab, though he dressed for the West Semi-Final against Winnipeg. He has dressed for only 39 games since signing with the Stamps in 2013 but has accumulated 191 catches for 2,793 yards and 18 touchdowns.
