Saturday night was supposed to be a celebratory night for Ottawa Redblacks quarterback Jeremiah Masoli, but instead, it turned disastrous.
A year to the day from suffering a season-ending leg injury against the Saskatchewan Roughriders, Masoli was once again helped off the field with a lower-body injury Saturday against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
Masoli went down with a non-contact injury after attempting to escape a collapsing pocket.
The Redblacks ruled Masoli out for the remainder of the contest.
Masoli, 34, played for the Tiger-Cats from 2013-'21, earning the East Division's outstanding player nomination in 2018 after passing for 5,209 yards and 28 TDs. Masoli joined the Redblacks as a free agent after being released by the Ticats, who signed Dane Evans to an extension to be their starter.
The Redblacks started the season 1-2 without Masoli at the helm.
