Ottawa REDBLACKS announce seven starting lineup changes for Winnipeg game

The Ottawa REDBLACKS have announced seven changes to their starting lineup ahead of Friday night’s game against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. The team is seeking its first victory of the season.

Key players returning to the lineup include offensive lineman Drew Desjarlais, defensive end Habakkuk Baldonado, and middle linebacker Nyles Morgan. Desjarlais returns from a foot injury, while Baldonado returns after being placed on the six-game injured list in mid-July. Morgan, who missed three games due to a broken hand, will play with a protective cast on his left hand.

In addition to these returns, Zachary Barlev will make his first career CFL start at right tackle, filling in for the injured Julian Pearl.
