According to the great Vince Lombardi:
‘Competition is for losers. I play to win.’
That may perfectly describe Saskatchewan Roughriders receivers and roommates KeeSean Johnson and Dhonte Meyers. Johnson leads the team with 682 receiving yards, while Myers is right behind him with 641 yards. But Myers does have the team lead with five touchdowns. And while the competition may be friendly between the pair on the field at Mosaic Stadium, it's fierce when they get home according to Meyers.
“We just thrive off competing off each other. You know, we pride ourselves on being very competitive. We're just competitive people. You know, we compete in everything, whether it's on the field, off the field, you know, so it's just a little brotherly competition.”
So what do they compete over?
“No, it's literally everything. Whether it's video games, card games, who gets more recovery, it's crazy. But yeah, and we live together. So it's just like whoever has the TV, who's cooking tonight, whose meal was better. You know, it's everything.”
