Als coach Stubler hasn’t missed a day after breaking five ribs, hand in crash

Montreal Alouettes defensive co-ordinator Rich Stubler will be playing hurt Friday night.

Stubler was riding his bike in the city earlier in the week when he crashed into an open car door. He suffered five broken ribs and a broken hand.

“He’s a tough guy, he hasn’t missed a day of work,” said Als’ head coach Mike Sherman. “He’s handling things quite well.”

Stubler, a longtime CFL coach who was hired by the Als this season, rode a motorized scooter at Thursday’s walkthrough.
