The Saskatchewan Roughriders announced today they have relieved VP, football operations & general manager Brendan Taman, and head coach Corey Chamblin of their duties with the Football Club.

"Brendan and Corey worked tirelessly for this organization and I thank them for all that they have done for our team," continued Reynolds. "But we are in a results oriented business and the current position of our team is unacceptable and this decision was necessary for us to build this team towards sustained success."
