The next day, a moment of silence was held at TD Place Stadium before the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Ottawa Redblacks game.

Alcohol and cannabis were found in Dalke's vehicle.

On July 23, the Roughriders held a moment of silence for Dalke and Rajyaguru before their game against the Edmonton Elks. On their first punt of the game, Saskatchewan fielded only 11 players in honor of Dalke and drew a time count violation. The Elks declined the penalty.
