- Roughriders defensive co-ordinator Jason Shivers taking part in the Diversity Is Strength: Racial Justice Roundtable presented jointly by the CFL and CFLPA on Wednesday;
- A feature Thursday on the 2020 Roughrider Champion Program, which includes a tour of the team’s football operations area at Mosaic Stadium;
- A blast from the past starting Nov. 20 of the Roughriders’ Grey Cup championship game that fans wanted to relive. Instead of commercial breaks, the game will be include some of fans’ favourite in-game features from 2019; and,

In August, the CFL cancelled the 2020 season — and thus the Grey Cup — due to the effects of the pandemic.
