OTTAWA — The Ottawa Redblacks fired defensive co-ordinator Will Fields on Saturday.
The CFL team made the morning announcement after Friday’s 34-14 loss to the Montreal Alouettes to fall to a record of 0-7-0 for its worst season start since rejoining the league in 2014.
“These decisions are always difficult,” Ottawa head coach and general manager Ryan Dinwiddie said in a statement.
“Will is a quality coach and an even better person and we want to thank him for his contributions to the Redblacks organization over the past two seasons.”
