Bombers' Whitaker highlights CFL weekly awards

Football Betting Lines

08/24/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Montreal Alouettes running back Brandon Whitaker, Montreal linebacker Chip Cox and Winnipeg Blue Bombers kick returner Jovon Johnson were selected as the CFL's top performers for Week 8 of the 2010 season.

Whitaker earned the Offensive Player of the Week honor after scoring a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns and gaining 74 yards on the ground, adding five catches for 44 yards in the Als' 39-17 thrashing of Winnipeg.

Earning the defensive award was Cox, who tortured the Bombers in that rout. He returned a fumble 14 yards for a touchdown, recorded a sack and led his club with nine tackles. This is his second weekly award, having claimed mention as the league's top defender in Week 6.

Johnson took home the special teams award for the week by returning six punts for 105 yards and a touchdown -- a 74-yard run which got the Bombers within a score late in the third quarter. This is also his second weekly award of 2010.

Rounding out the weekly awards was the Canadian Player of the Week Andre Durie of the Toronto Argonauts. Durie posted a career-best 84 yards from scrimmage in the Argos' 16-12 loss to Hamilton, compiling seven catches for 69 yards and rushed once for 15 yards.
