'This isn't the end of No. 4': Bombers linebacker Bighill out for the season as he undergoes surgery
Veteran Winnipeg Blue Bombers linebacker Adam Bighill will undergo surgery on his left knee Thursday, putting an end to his football season.
The 35-year-old posted the injury update on an Instagram post, saying "this isn't the end of No. 4 by any means, but it does mean one step at a time." "Attacking rehab is next," he said.
Bighill was placed on the six-game injured list after Winnipeg's 35-33 win over Saskatchewan on Sept. 1. He made two tackles in the game before leaving late in the fourth quarter.
He had 48 tackles and a sack over 10 games with the Bombers this season, his 12th in the CFL and sixth with Winnipeg. Bighill has 939 defensive tackles, 71 special-teams tackles and 50 sacks over 190 career regular-season games with B.C.
