Ottawa Redblacks quarterback Jeremiah Masoli was carried off the field by his teammates after a low hit by Saskatchewan Roughriders defensive lineman Garrett Marino.
The low hit sparked a scrum between the two teams while Masoli remained down on the field accompanied by Redblacks' training staff and his former Hamilton Tiger-Cat teammate and current Roughrider Larry Dean.
Marino was ejected and the Riders were issued a 15-yard penalty.
Backup quarterback Caleb Evans was forced into action to close out the game.
Masoli threw for 210 yards, a touchdown and an interception before he was injured.
The Redblacks have not yet commented on the status of Masoli.
