The BC Lions secured the win over the Saskatchewan Roughriders Saturday but were dealt a serious injury blow in the process.

Halfback TJ Lee, one of the team's top performers on defence, was likely lost for the season to an Achilles tear suffered in the win, according to TSN's Farhan Lalji.

Lee and Ronnie Yell combine to lock down the field side on defence for the Lions. The 26-year-old has 15 tackles and a sack through the first four games of the year.
