The Toronto Argonauts are making a big change to their roster after a heartbreaking loss last week.
Canadian rookie kicker Brady Lidster will replace veteran Lirim Hajrullahu for Saturday's road game against the B.C. Lions. Hajrullahu is now on the reserve roster for the Argos (2-4), who revealed their depth chart Friday.
Hajrullahu, 36, missed a 31-yard field goal on the final play last week in a one-point loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. He also missed a convert earlier in the game.
A CFL all-star last year and a four-time division all-star, Hajrullahu is 12-for-18 on field goals this season.
The Western University product had a short run with the Dallas Cowboys in 2021, making four of five field goals.
Lidster was cut by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers at training camp this year after being named a first-team all-Canadian with the Windsor Lancers last year.
Meanwhile, newly signed defensive lineman Shawn Lemon will make his season debut for the Argos as a backup. Lemon, 37, has 103 career sacks.
