The 2020 Saskatchewan Roughriders season was scheduled to be the 63rd season for the team in the Canadian Football League. It would have been the club's 111th year overall, and its 105th season of play. This would have been the second season under head coach Craig Dickenson and general manager Jeremy O'Day.

Training camps, pre-season games, and regular season games were initially postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Saskatchewan. The CFL announced on April 7, 2020 that the start of the 2020 season would not occur before July 2020.[1] On May 20, 2020, it was announced that the league would likely not begin regular season play prior to September 2020.[2] On August 17, 2020 however, the season was officially cancelled due to COVID-19.[3]
