Thank you Edmonton 💚💛 I didn’t know in 2013 the impact this city and fan base would have on my family and I. So much so that we decided to make it home. I wish I could still suit up in the green and gold but I’m excited to see what playing opportunities are ahead.

A huge thank you to

, the fans and the city. The memories over the past 5 seasons will never go away. You were great to not only me, but my family as well and we will always love you for that. I wish you nothing but the best moving forward.

How can you not be happy for a guy like Coach Maas? Hard to find a player who’s played for him that doesn’t think highly of him. Loved by his players. Love that dude.

Possibly the best teammate I’ve ever had. Showed me how to be a pro on and off the field. One of the hardest workers and best leaders I’ve been around. Helped me become the player/leader I am today. Congrats bro! Ring of honor? 👀
So we had some players wake up this morning looking forward to that bonus money then got hit with “we made a mistake. You’re not getting that money”. This is unacceptable. We gotta do better 🤦♂️
It’s not about who throws the money at you first. Sometimes not even who throws the most at you. It’s about finding the right situation for yourself. I hope every player puts themselves in a position that creates stability and longevity for their career.

As long as we’re making progress none of us should be upset. Like Nip always said, it’s a marathon not a sprint. Shoutout to the CFLPA members and reps who put in hundreds of hours to get this done. Also to the league for making us partners again. Let’s get this season started!
Was privileged to have had Christian on our Podcast this past season. A good, young man with a bright future, and so many fans here loving him for what he did on AND off the field. Godspeed, Christian - we all loved you.

I’ve been thinking about this quote for the last few days. This is leadership at its finest. Making his staff feel valued. Doesn’t care about getting the credit. Just the wins. Sounds like a great environment to be in

“I’m not taking any credit for this penalty kill. It is Mark Stuart’s job and he’s done a fantastic job. The only thing I will take credit for is giving him that responsibility. I didn’t know Mark at all, but I gave him that job and I don’t think we would be here if it wasn’t for
I feel bad for every player who was initially left off the list and for every player who ended up being taken off. It almost makes the list feel less important…
I wonder how fast a deal would get done if the league executives/ bargaining team stopped getting pay checks from March 1st up until a new CBA was signed?

Football is a game like nothing else. It has given our family far more than we can ever give back. But we vow to keep trying. Tonight, we are grateful. 🙏

: For those calculating CFL salaries, remember teams don’t need to comply with the salary cap in the off-season. Some costly vets will be dumped just before - or after - training camp. 💵
👀👀👀 Congrats, you’ve been announced as a nominee to the All-Decade team. Feel free share to this graphic on your social media and here’s a link for fans to vote: …
I truly feel the opportunity will present itself for me to play a final year. So call me crazy all you want I’m still going to put in the work.
Either way it’s goes I’m Ready for Whatever.
