EDMONTON — The Edmonton Eskimos have announced that defensive back Aaron Grymes will not play in Week 1.
The international defensive back has been added to the team’s suspended list, sidelining him for the Eskimos’ season-opener in Winnipeg on Thursday.
National defensive lineman Gabriel Bagnell and running back Alex Taylor has also been suspended.
The move could leave the Esks thin at defensive back for Week 1. The club has been without veteran defensive back Johnny Adams and national starting corner Arjen Colquhoun so far throughout practice, according to CHED‘s Dave Campbell.

- National fullback Tanner Green
- International quarterback Zach Kline
- National fullback Pascal Lochard
- International offensive lineman Andrew Peterson
