Despite Williams-Lambert’s strong showing last season, head coach Craig Dickenson has opted to stick with Shaq Evans, Naaman Roosevelt, Kyran Moore and Manny Arceneaux as the four starting American receivers as the team prepares for Saturday’s road game against the Toronto Argonauts.

The same four pass-catchers were in the lineup for a 27-25 home-field victory over the Montreal Alouettes on Sept. 14. The Roughriders then entered a bye week, after which it was widely expected that they would find an active-roster spot for Williams-Lambert — who resumed practising leading up to the matchup with Montreal — for the Toronto game.
