After a banner start to 2023 for the Toronto Argonauts, 2024 has started with much adversity. The 150th anniversary season ended without a title, players left in free agency and, most notably, the starting Quarterback Chad Kelly is under suspension for harrassment of a team employee. With a lot to unpack, we connected with CFL historian, author and friend of PSP, Paul Woods.
Nii Wallace-Bruce and Paul Woods discussed the circumstances around the suspension as well as the handling by the team and the Canadian Football League.Given Kelly's past and his current contract, we also discussed what is next for the troubled QB.With training camp already underway, we also took a look at what the team looks like without Kelly and how they might fare early on in 2024.
