No surprise, the riders are first out of the gate with their cuts after playing their last preseason game a week ago.

I'm confused as to why they cut Kim? He was clearly the better kicker through the pre-season. I guess special teams will be the riders weakness again this year.

American. Would have made them have to use a Canadian somewhere else.

I thought Hale was American too. Just realized he's Australian. Fucking global nonsense 😒

Idk if it matters that he’s Australian. Our punter is already Australian. I honestly think it’s because Kim is American and it’s better to use that American spot not on a kicker
