Veteran receiver Clarence Denmark won't be continuing his CFL career with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Denmark was among Saskatchewan's 20 final cuts Sunday as CFL teams reduced their rosters to the league-mandated 46-man active roster. Demark joined the Riders this off-season as a free agent after being released by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

"Tough biz we deal with but this gives me the chance to slide to the peg to see my lil man on Father's Day," Denmark tweeted. "See the good in everything #life."

Denmark had 306 career catches for 4,165 yards and 16 TDs in 88 regular-season appearances with Winnipeg. He was a West Division all-star in 2014 after amassing 1,080 receiving yards.

The Riders also released quarterback Brett Smith, who completed 142-of-224 passes for 1,822 yards with 15 TDs against nine interceptions as a rookie last season. Defensive linemen Eric Norwood and Dylan Ainsworth, quarterback Phillip Sims and offensive lineman Jarriel King and Matt Vonk went on the six-game injured list.

Saskatchewan also acquired international defensive back Brandon McDonald from the Calgary Stampeders for a negotiation list player. The five-foot-11, 185-pound McDonald enters his third CFL season after splitting the previous two with Ottawa and the Stamps.

The defending Grey Cup-champion Edmonton Eskimos released nine players, including veteran Canadian safety Cauchy Muamba. The six-year veteran spent the last two seasons in Alberta after playing for the B.C. Lions and Winnipeg.

Also released by Edmonton was former Toronto Argonauts receiver Natey Adjei.

Canadian linebacker Herve Tonye-Tonye and American defensive back Shane Herbert were among 16 players released by Toronto. The Argos also added running back Chad Kackert, the MVP of the 2012 Grey Cup, to their practice roster after releasing the veteran last week.
