Bill Gray (Canadian football)

Bill Gray was a running back for the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League from 1961 to 1965.

Bill Gray played college football as a running back at Maryland State College, now called University of Maryland Eastern Shore, rushing for 4.6 yards per carry.

[1] He earned his chance to start on offense in 1962 after an injury to Ray Purdin, and quickly profited by it by rushing for 140 yards in a single game against the Montreal Alouettes.

However, the following year, Gray was hampered by injuries[3] and replaced by Ed Buchanan, eventually playing behind him in 1964 and 1965 until signing with the Montreal Alouettes.
