The Saskatchewan Roughriders are in the market for some new coordinators.
Roughriders head coach Corey Chamblin announced Tuesday that Richie Hall will not be back as defensive coordinator next season, but will be offered another role with the team.
Hall had been the Roughriders’ defensive coordinator the past four years after returning from a stint as head coach of the Edmonton Eskimos. Prior to his time in Edmonton, Hall had spent 15 years with the Roughriders as a coach, eight of which were as defensive coordinator.
Hall also spent nine players with the Roughriders as a player.
Chamblin said he may take over defensive coordinator duties, something he did with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats prior to his time in Saskatchewan.
Chamblin also gave an update on the team’s search for an offensive coordinator, saying he’s spoken to Paul LaPolice and Jacques Chapdelaine about the vacancy.
