Winnipeg Blue Bombers import running back Chris Garrett will miss the 2012 CFL season after tearing his Achilles tendon in practice, the club announced on Tuesday.
“We are extremely disappointed after hearing the news from the doctors about how serious Chris’ injury exactly is,” said vice-president and general manager Joe Mack. “It is unfortunate for the Club, but also for Chris as he was someone who was looking forward to being a big part of our offence this season. Chris is a tough young man who will overcome this and we wish him a quick recovery.”
