With Philpot Sidelined, Als Receivers Behar and Fervius Must Pick Up Slack
Als receivers Nate Behar and Shedler Fervius will step in for Eugene Philpot
The Montreal Alouettes will be without starting wide receiver Eugene Philpot for the next few weeks due to a lower-body injury.
Philpot, who leads the Alouettes with 45 receptions for 530 yards and three touchdowns this season, was injured in the fourth quarter of Montreal's 34-31 win over the Ottawa Redblacks on Friday.
With Philpot sidelined, Behar and Fervius will be counted on to step up in his absence.
Behar and Fervius have combined for 39 catches for 476 yards and two touchdowns this season.
Behar, a 25-year-old from Laval, Que., has 22 catches for 250 yards and one touchdown in his first season with the Alouettes.
Fervius, a 24-year-old from Montreal, has 17 catches for 226 yards and one touchdown in his second season with the Alouettes.
The Alouettes will need Behar and Fervius to produce in Philpot's absence.
The Alouettes are currently in first place in the East Division with a 7-3 record.
They will be back in action on Saturday when they host the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
Conclusion
The Alouettes will need Behar and Fervius to step up in Philpot's absence. They are both talented receivers who have the potential to make a big impact on the Alouettes' offense.
With Philpot out, Behar and Fervius will have a chance to prove that they can be counted on to produce at a high level.
