MONTREAL – Four former McGill University players are among a record-high 208 products from U SPORTS institutions that were listed on Canadian Football League rosters heading into the 2019 CFL season, which kicks off Thursday night (June 13) when Saskatchewan plays at Hamilton. The total surpassed the record (205) set last year.
McGill has produced 59 players for the CFL and three who have suited up in the NFL (see complete list below).
Leading the current group of McGillians is veteran linebacker
Jesse Briggs (B.Ed. '14) of Kelowna, B.C., who returns for his sixth campaign with Winnipeg. Among the newcomers to the CFL this season is Hamilton rookie linebacker
Valentin Gnahoua from Le Mans, France and Edmonton first-year linebacker
Maxime Rouyer (B.Ed '19) of Troyes, France. Also included is Saskatchewan linebacker
Mike Edem, a native of Nigeria who played one season at McGill before transferring to the Calgary Dinos and is entering his seventh CFL season.
A fifth McGillian also playing pro football is offensive lineman
Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, a medical school graduate from St. Hilaire, Que., who is about to enter in his sixth year with the Kansas City Chiefs after being selected 200th overall in the 2014 NFL Draft.
The 11-team OUA conference leads the way with 82 players, followed by the six-team Canada West (62). The Quebec-based RSEQ, a five-team conference since Bishop's departed in 2017, has 47 players listed, and the AUS has 17, including two from Bishop's.
For the third consecutive year, all 27 U SPORTS football programs will be represented in the CFL this summer. The University of Calgary once again led all U SPORTS institutions with 27 former Dinos on CFL lineups. They are one of eight schools to hit double digits, along with Laval (17), Guelph (15), Western (13), McMaster (12), Wilfrid Laurier (12), Montreal (12) and Manitoba (11).
The Ottawa REDBLACKS open the new CFL campaign with a CFL-high 29 former Canadian university players within their ranks, followed by Hamilton (28), Toronto (22), Montreal (22), Saskatchewan (21), Calgary (20), Edmonton (20), Winnipeg (20) and British Columbia (20).
The 2019 U SPORTS football season gets under way on August 23 and culminates on November 23 with the 55th edition of the Vanier Cup championship in Quebec City.
