The 2014 Saskatchewan Roughriders season was the 57th season for the team in the Canadian Football League. The Roughriders qualified for the playoffs for a third straight season, but failed to defend their Grey Cup title as they lost the West Semi-Final to the Edmonton Eskimos. For the second consecutive season, the club held training camp at Griffiths Stadium in Saskatoon with the main camp beginning on June 1.
During the offseason, the Roughriders lost many key players from the 2013 season, including Weston Dressler, Kory Sheets, Craig Butler and Ricky Schmitt.
The Roughriders lost quarterbacks coach Khari Jones to the BC Lions, who went there to become the Lions' offensive coordinator. During the 2013 CFL Expansion Draft, they lost Keith Shologan, Zach Evans and James Lee to the Ottawa Redblacks. The Roughriders re-signed Terrell Maze, Taj Smith, Christopher Milo, Paul Woldu and Macho Harris who all were slated to become free agents in February 2014. In a trade with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, the Roughriders traded Drew Willy for Jade Etienne. In a trade with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, the Roughriders received Josh Bartel and Shomari Williams.
