Originally posted by TSN The Montreal Alouettes will have to make due without their all-Canadian slotback for longer than expected.
TSN's sister station in Quebec RDS reports that Ben Cahoon has a fractured left elbow and wrist and is expected to be out six weeks.
Cahoon will wear a cast on his wrist, but will not require surgery.
He suffered the injury in Thursday's win over the Saskatchewan Roughriders and was initially expected to miss two to four weeks.
The Alouettes lost two of their four 1,000 yard receivers from last season and traded Kwame Cavil to the Edmonton Eskimos last week. Sylvain Girard, who was not expected back until Week 9, may be recovered enough from his groin injury to take Cahoon's spot.
If not, O'Neill Wilson, played nine games for Montreal as a rookie last season, will be called upon.
Yeah, definately not what the Als needed. Hopefully Girard is healthy enough to come back and play for Cahoon, Vaughn could see some double coverage from the Argos.
