In their first two meetings with Calgary this season, the Riders didn't have slotback Andy Fantuz in the lineup and on Saturday, it will be the same story.

Head coach Ken Miller confirmed Thursday that Fantuz will not play in Calgary.

The receiver spent most of the day practicing with the scout team, with Chris Getzlaf playing his position.

While Fantuz feels he can play through the pain, Miller says he doesn't want to risk re-injury.
