The Calgary Stampeders are still waiting to find out the severity of Kamar Jorden’s knee injury.

Jorden went down in the second quarter of Monday’s Labour Day Classic against the Edmonton Eskimos and remained in hospital overnight.

On Wednesday, the Stamps confirmed that the hospitalization was precautionary and meant to ensure there was no arterial damage, but they had little other news to provide.

“I don’t have his injury update — he may still be in the hospital,” said Stamps head coach Dave Dickenson. “He did get good news. He was (getting checked) for, basically, some arterial problems.

“I know that’s a big word, but that was confirmed that he was good there.

“Just waiting on MRI results that certainly doesn’t look good, but I’m not going to speculate.”

An MRI could reveal ligament tears that would end Jorden’s breakout season.

He is currently second in the CFL in receiving yards with 944.
