After going 6-12 in 2023 the Roughriders made a coaching change in 2024 hiring former Toronto Argonauts defensive coordinator Corey Mace as their new head coach. The Port Moody British Columbia native sparked a turnaround in his first year, as the Roughriders went 9-8-1 to finish in second place in the West Division. They came one game short of a Grey Cup appearance, winning their first playoff game before losing to the Winnipeg Blue Combers in the West Final.
