SportsNet reporter and 3DownNation columnist Arash Madani is reporting that the Saskatchewan Roughriders have re-started talks with quarterback Darian Durant, who is set to become a free agent in February.

A well-placed #CFL source familiar with negotiations tells me the #Riders made Darian Durant a new contract offer this week. — Arash Madani (@ArashMadani) January 5, 2017

A #Riders source tells me their offer to Durant has a base salary around $300,000, w/ performance incentives to reach $400,000 in 2017. #CFL — Arash Madani (@ArashMadani) January 5, 2017

Sense I get from the #Riders is they don’t want to lock in on a high cap # on a QB with Durant’s injury track record. Hence playtime bonuses — Arash Madani (@ArashMadani) January 5, 2017
