Not surprised, good move by the Eskimos.

It will be interesting to see if Benevides lives up to his own hype.


Benevides said the fans can expect another “championship-calibre” defence and added that, like Jones, “I like to do things differently as well.”
“There’ll be a lot of similarities because the players are who they are, but at the same time, I’ve always been one to attack the situation, if you will, to make sure we keep people out of the end zone. And with (quarterback) Mike Reilly and that great offence, we’ve got to get them the ball back as quickly as possible because he can’t score when he’s on the bench.”
