The BC Lions announced that quarterback Nathan Rourke will undergo further evaluation on his right foot after he left Friday's win over the Saskatchewan Roughriders with a foot injury.
Rourke suffered the injury when he was sacked by Riders defensive lineman Pete Robertson and left the game in the fourth quarter.
Rourke wore a walking boot when exiting the field at the end of the game. A first-year starter, the Canadian has become a contender for the CFL's Most Outstanding Player this season.
The 24-year-old completed 22 of 31 passes for 375 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions as the Lions improved to 8-1 and extended their winning streak to five games.
