REGINA — The Saskatchewan Roughriders have brought back quarterback Tino Sunseri to back up Kevin Glenn.

The Roughriders announced Wednesday that Sunseri has agreed to terms on a contract.

Glenn was thrust into the starter’s role when Darian Durant was lost for the season with a torn Achilles tendon suffered in Saskatchewan’s season opener.

Sunseri started four games last year when Durant went down with a season-ending elbow injury midway through the season.

Overall, Sunseri completed 73 of 123 pass attempts last season for 973 yards, six touchdowns and three interceptions.
