Former Rider Darian Durant moves on to life as an Alouette
It’s not exactly a break up, but it’s something you have to move on from.
Darian Durant came back to Regina, not just for CFL Week, but also because he needed to pack up his home and get ready to move out east.
The Grey Cup-winning quarterback was traded to the Montreal Alouettes in January, rocking the Rider Nation in the process. But now Durant said he is really not surprised with how things turned out, adding he doesn’t believe he was ever one of head coach Chris Jones’ guys.
“That’s one of the main reasons I signed a one-year deal,” Durant said on Wednesday afternoon. “I wanted to see how it went and how I felt at the end of the year and even if I wanted to stay. I just wanted it to be in my hands.”
