Saskatchewan Roughriders
Knox signed with the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League (CFL) on May 8, 2015. Knox made the Riders roster following the training camp in June 2015, and following an injury to the team's starting middle linebacker, Knox took over duties as the middle linebacker for the Roughriders. Knox had an outstanding first season in the CFL, amassing 112 tackles over the course of the season, only 2 shy of first place Adam Bighill. He also contributed 10 special teams tackles and one interception. His performance was recognized by his peers when he was named a CFL West All-Star. Knox's 2016 season was not as spectacular as his rookie campaign as he played though injuries for portions of the season. In 17 regular season games he collected 65 defensive tackles, 19 special teams tackles, and 1 quarterback sack. Following the 2016 season, on January 14, 2017, Knox was released by the Roughriders allowing him to sign a contract with an NFL team.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
A few hours later, Knox signed a three-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the NFL.
