VANCOUVER — The BC Lions will be without quarterback Nathan Rourke in Week 8.
Rourke was listed as out on the team’s injury report on Thursday and was placed on the reserve roster on the Lions’ official depth chart released on Friday as he deals with a shoulder injury.
The Canadian signal-caller left last weekend’s game against Edmonton after the first drive of the game and did not return.
