DeVonte Dedmon had himself a night on Friday.
The Ottawa RedBlacks wide receiver thrilled the crowd in Montreal with two spectacular returns for touchdowns against the Alouettes.
In the first quarter, Dedmon lined up to receive a kickoff after Montreal had scored a touchdown to grab a 10-0 lead. After catching the ball just inside Ottawa's end zone, the 23-year-old wasted little time in slicing through the entire Alouettes team to put the RedBlacks on the board with an 111-yard touchdown run.

Dedmon's teammates rushed over to celebrate with him, but they didn't know what was to come next.
With time ticking down in the second quarter, the Alouettes punted deep into the Ottawa half. After corralling the ball off a high bounce, Dedmon started his run at the RedBlacks' 15-yard line and charged right down the middle of the field, eventually shrugging off tackle attempts by no fewer than than seven opposing players before trotting into the Montreal end zone for the second time in the game.
