CALGARY — The injury bug has bitten the Calgary Stampeders receiving corps once again.
Stamps pass-catcher Reggie Begelton will miss the rest of the season with a broken arm.

The 25-year-old receiver was forced to leave Friday night’s game against the Argonauts in the opening quarter after suffering an injury while blocking on a punt return. Begelton was favouring his right arm after the play and was carted off to the locker room. He was coming off back-to-back 150-yard games.
The Stamps are already thin at receiver with starter Kamar Jorden out for the season with a knee injury and DaVaris Daniels being sidelined long-term. Eric Rogers will spend another week on the injured reserve.
