The Saskatchewan Roughriders have invited a trio of Saskatoon-based players to their training camp. Saskatoon Hilltops players Johnathon Stevens and Dalton Urban will be on the field in Saskatoon. Additionally, Anton Amundrud will attend training camp as part of the CFL Quarterback Internship Program.
Stevens, a six-foot-two, 285-pound defensive lineman from Eatonia, has spent the last three Prairie Football Conference seasons with the Hilltops. He played in six games last year, registering three sacks and four tackles for a loss. While suiting up for 11 games in 2023, he recorded six sacks, four tackles for a loss, four forced fumbles and two interceptions.
Six-foot, 180-pound Urban is a Saskatoon-born defensive back and has been a PFC All-Star the past two seasons. In 2024, he had three interceptions, a 39-yard touchdown on a fumble return and three pass knockdowns. The year before, Urban had seven interceptions in 12 games.
Amundrud, from Lloydminster, AB, has been the University of Saskatchewan Huskies’ starting quarterback for the last two seasons. The six-foot-three, 215-pound pivot played 11 games in 2024, throwing for 2,984 yards and 15 touchdowns. In nine games in 2023, Amundrud threw for 2,457 yards and 14 touchdowns.
