Duron Carter staying in Riderville for another season

Saskatchewan Roughriders wide receiver Duron Carter (89) makes a one-handed grab for a touchdown in front of Toronto Argonauts defensive back Akwasi Owusu-Ansah (9) during first half CFL football action in Regina on Saturday, July 29, 2017. It was a good, bad and ugly type week in the CFL. Carter's one-handed grab in Saskatchewan's 38-27 win over Toronto would qualify as good with Argonauts defender Johnny Sears' stunning decision not to touch receiver Bakari Grant while he was on the ground being the bad.
