Argonauts veteran quarterback Ricky Ray sidelined with fractured rib
TORONTO — As he left Tim Hortons Field on Monday night, head coach Scott Milanovich suspected he might have to make due without Ricky Ray for the Toronto Argonauts’ next game.
Turns out Milanovich will be without his starting quarterback for significantly longer.
Ray was in attendance but didn’t practise Friday as veteran Dan LeFevour took snaps with the starting offence. Milanovich said Ray suffered a fractured rib and partially deflated lung in Toronto’s 49-36 loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Monday night.
Milanovich added Ray’s lung has since returned to normal but he’ll miss four-to-six weeks. LeFevour will start Sunday when Toronto (4-6) looks to snap a four-game losing streak as it hosts Hamilton (5-5) at BMO Field.
