Tiger-Cats' Stewart on Banks' punt return: 'It was the greatest play that never happened'

Brandon Banks almost ran the Hamilton Tiger-Cats into the history books. Instead, his punt return at the end of the Grey Cup final will reside in the what-if column.

Banks, who scored a pair of return touchdowns in the East final, had a potentially game-winning touchdown called back due to an illegal block by Taylor Reed, leaving the Tiger-Cats to fall short on their final drive and lose to the Calgary Stampeders 20-16. The return once again left Banks' teammates in awe, even though this one didn't count.

Banks was so upset after the game ended he left the locker room before media arrived and did not speak to Hamilton coach Kent Austin. Reed took full responsibility for the penalty.
