TORONTO — Winnipeg defensive lineman Willie Jefferson, Saskatchewan quarterback Trevor Harris and the Roughriders’ offensive line earned top marks on the CFL’s Week 9 honour roll.

Jefferson earned a grade of 99.3 in the Blue Bombers’ 40-31 win over visiting Toronto on Friday after posting a career-high four pass knockdowns along with a defensive tackle, a forced fumble and a strip sack resulting in a Bombers touchdown.

Harris completed 70.4 per cent of his passes for 289 yards and two touchdowns as league-leading Saskatchewan beat the Alouettes 34-6 in Montreal on Saturday, earning the top offensive grade of 87.7.

The Roughriders’ offensive line combined for a score of 75.1 after limiting the Alouettes to one sack while protecting Harris and opening the way for the Riders to rush for 137 yards and a touchdown.
