Jorden was relegated to the sidelines after the Stamps’ Week 2 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, but appears set to finally make a return to action this weekend when those very same Bombers make a visit to McMahon Stadium.

“I’m just ready to go, honestly, it’s been a long time coming,” Jorden said. “I’ve been ready week-in, week-out, whatever happened. It’s been somewhat of an open competition, but I know where the team is and Bakari’s our guy, but I’m up now and we won’t lose a step.

“I’ve been ready to go every week since Day 1 and we’ll be fine.”

While Grant has been putting up big-time numbers for the Stampeders over the last 10 weeks, he was forced to leave the Stamps’ big victory over the Ottawa RedBlacks last weekend with a leg injury.
