Saskatchewan Roughriders quarterback Darian Durant suffered a ruptured achilles tendon in Saturday's loss to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and will miss the remainder of the 2015 season.

Durant was carted off the field in the second quarter and returned to the sideline in the second half with a walking cast around his left ankle.

The 32-year-old, who was playing his first game since suffering an elbow injury last September, completed 13 of 18 passes for 165 yards and two touchdowns before exiting.

He suffered the injury on a non-contact play after throwing an incomplete pass late in the second quarter. Kevin Glenn replaced Durant at quarterback.

His fellow CFLers took to Twitter to express their best wishes to the veteran.
