COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – The Saskatchewan Roughriders have acquired the negotiating rights to former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor and have spoken to Pryor about bringing him to the Canadian Football League.
Pryor, a three-year starter for the Buckeyes, announced on Tuesday that he is giving up his senior season while the NCAA looks into issues dealing with improper benefits and cars.
Roughriders general manager Brendan Taman told The Associated Press on Wednesday that the team has talked to Pryor’s lawyer, Larry James. According to Taman, James told the Roughriders that Pryor would need until next week to consider the situation.
Taman said Pryor is being looked at by the Roughriders strictly as a quarterback. Pryor could also enter next year’s NFL draft or a supplemental draft this summer.
