Hughes sacked QB Mike Reilly three times while adding two tackles for a loss, a career-high 10 tackles and two forced fumbles as the Roughriders defeated the visiting B.C Lions on Saturday.

Evans recorded five catches for a personal-best 158 yards and a pivotal fourth-quarter touchdown in the game.
