The Edmonton Eskimos advanced to the Eastern final with a win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Sunday, but it wasn't all good news.
Eskimos quarterback Mike Reilly was forced to leave the game with an apparent wrist injury.
Reilly went down after taking a hit on a scramble during the fourth quarter and was forced to the locker room.

He returned to the sideline late in the game, but didn't re-enter the contest.
The 2015 Grey Cup MVP had 28 touchdowns and more than 5,500 yards passing this season, so it will be a significant loss for Edmonton if he can't play next week against the Ottawa RedBlacks.
