Watch Montreal Alouettes Vs. Ottawa Redblacks Live Stream: Start Time, Preview, Watch CFL Week 12 Game Online
Johnny Manziel will remain on the bench as 23-year-old Antonio Pipkin gets his third consecutive start for the Montreal Alouettes, according to CFL. Montreal, the last-place team in the Canadian Football League East Division, travels to Ottawa to face the division leaders, the Redblacks, who could sweep the three-game season series from Montreal in the Week 12 game that will live stream from TD Place on Friday.
Pipkin, who was briefly signed as an undrafted free agent by the Arizona Cardinals last year before joining the Redblacks, has held the Montreal quarterback slot since Manziel was placed in the concussion protocol after his Week 9 start against Ottawa. But Pipkin quickly rose to the occasion, and led Montreal to only its second win of the season last week, passing for 303 yards to lead the Alouettes to a thrilling 25-23 victory over the Toronto Argonauts, according to the Montreal Gazette.
But Pipkin insists that no rivalry with Manziel exists — the two even worked out together in 2017 as Pipkin was preparing for the NFL Draft and Manziel was getting in shape for his pro football comeback.
“It helps when you’ve known guys prior to being in the same competitive business. We’ve known each other and hung out,” Pipkin told the Gazette this week. “He’s a good guy. You want to see everybody succeed. The controversy thing’s not in our room or locker at all. We support each other. We do everything we can to help each other. We have a good room.”
