2002 Preseason:  Tried to look for a job with his hometown Buffalo Bills in the offseason, but they weren't interested.  Comes back to the Riders to anchor what could be an all-Canadian offensive line.

2001 Preseason:  Has settled in nicely as the Riders starting centre.  Has a bit of a nasty streak for an offensive lineman and loves to plow through defensive lineman to open running lanes.

2000 Regular Season:  Second-year Roughrider has made his way to starting lineup as a centre after a good training camp battle with veteran C James Monroe.  Last year, the Western New York native (who qualifies to play as a Canadian because he lived in Niagara Falls, Ont. for a few years) backed up at guard and tackle.  Riders like his aggressive nature.  Spent first two years with Toronto Argonauts before signing with Saskatchewan as a free agent last season.
