Kyries Hebert isn’t backing down from being Public Enemy No. 1 in Calgary.

Instead, when he was asked about that distinction on Wednesday in Ottawa, the Redblacks linebacker decided to take a shot at former Stampeders running back Jon Cornish.

Hebert , with the Montreal Alouettes at the time, was fined in 2014 after delivering a brutal illegal hit to Cornish’s head that left the Stamps great with a serious concussion.

On June 28, Hebert again took a head shot at a member of the Stampeders, this time earning a one-game suspension for going high on receiver DaVaris Daniels.

That prompted a — since deleted — tweet from Cornish calling for the Redblacks to release Hebert, who brought it up Wednesday when he was asked about the perception of him as a dirty player among Calgarians.

“It’s not something I care about, no,” Hebert said. “I saw Cornish had a tweet but it was kind of soft, which is how I always treated him on the field.

“Whatever, I’m here to support my team and my family and the fans of (Redblacks nation), that’s who I care about.”

It was Cornish, though, who drew the ire of Hebert.

“(Hebert) forfeited his right to be in this league,” Cornish wrote after the hit on Daniels. “It’s time for us to all stand up for one another and state we will not accept this behaviour. Please join me in asking the (Redblacks) to release Kyrie Hebert.”

On Wednesday, Hebert chose to defend his record while accepting that his hit on Daniels was illegal.

“There’s a way to do things and that wasn’t the way, so make adjustments,” Hebert said. “I have over 800 career tackles, I’ve been in trouble five times, maybe. So the ratio’s not like it’s an every play incident (or) occurrence. I’m going to clean it up, like I said, the most important thing is our team and being available for them.”
