Durant made 57 receptions for 810 yards and five touchdowns in 15 games. The Vancouver native signed with the Lions during free agency in February.

The Calgary Stampeders selected Durant the Simon Fraser University product in the second round, 18th overall during the 2015 CFL draft. He played 51 games for the Stamps recording 102 catches for 1,280 yards and eight touchdowns in four seasons.

The 28-year-old was having a career-best campaign on the Left coast. The Lions will have to keep their playoff push going without Durant.
