Referee-shoving Rose will play in Grey Cup

-

Despite being handed a onegame suspension by the CFL early Tuesday, Ottawa Redblacks defensive back Jonathan Rose will play in Sunday’s Grey Cup. The CFL Players’ Associatio­n filed an appeal of the suspension on behalf of Rose, which puts a hold on the one-game penalty. The appeal will not be heard before the Grey Cup. So Rose will be in the lineup for the Redblacks against the Calgary Stampeders Sunday. The CFL suspended Rose for an incident during last Sunday’s East Division final against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. Rose pulled Ticats receiver Bralon Addison to the ground well out of bounds near the Hamilton bench. In an ensuing scuffle, Rose pushed a sideline official.
