The potential is there but it's no guarantee he sticks with an NFL roster.
Henry and Reggie both would easily make the Lions. Hatcher was a no namer before this year. Whitehead was a bummers washout. Rhymes was let go by the Redblacks. Burnham is amazing.

For context:
Whitehead had 228 yards in during Rourke's injury (5 games, 46 yards/game)
Hatcher had 355 yards during Rourke's injury (8 games, 44 yards/game)
Rhymes had 536 yards during Rourke's injury (8 games, 67 yards/game)
Burnham had 216 yards during Rourk'e injury (4 games, 54 yards/game)

The trio of Whitehead/Hatcher/Rhymes had 1557 yards combined on 2021. Talented players obviously but Rourke made these guys look like the "most stacked unit we have seen in a long time".

Hopefully he picks a good spot. Rooting for him.
Saints have plenty of history being the first stop for CFL stars & Canadians too, they seem to have an eye on the ball up here. I'd love to see that.

Who's ready for Saturday playoff football in the CFL? East/West semi-finals and finals starting in 2023.

Yes, I read the last time they tried this was 2008. I don't think it was received all that well.

Just imagine what the numbers could be if the CFL had any kind of marketing...

There's an ongoing meme with Bomber fans about Mosaic being IGF West. We won a lot of games there, playoffs, labour day, their stadium opener.

Interesting speculation from Farhan today; Toronto may be players in the Bo Mitchell sweepstakes. There's been discussion that this may well be Bethel-Thompson's last game Sunday.

His wife is a screen writer for Marvel/Disney+ in Atlanta, plus they have a growing family.

EDIT: I also know the Agros brass are very on high Chad Kelly.

^ this 150%

I went to the gym this morning, then stopped at Sobeys on the way home and bought lots of stuff from the brown food group.

Looking forward to a good day

To me the game comes down to how well Collaros can handle the Argos pass rush. The Argos will undoubtedly be packing the box and trying to shut down Oliveira while at the same time creating constant pressure on the QB. How well Collaros deals with it and gets the ball to his playmakers will decide the game. If Ja'Gared Davis has a huge game, the Argos probably win.
