Toronto Argonauts Make Bold Moves!

In a surprising shake-up, the Toronto Argonauts have cut ties with running back Khalan Laborn and fullback Brandon Calver. This decision follows a disappointing loss against the Ottawa Redblacks, where the Argonauts fell 46-42, leaving their season record at a troubling 2-7.

Khalan Laborn's Short Stint with the Argos

Khalan Laborn, who has only been with the Argonauts for this season, appeared in five games, accumulating 18 carries for 58 yards and one touchdown. Last season with the Ottawa Redblacks, Laborn had a more impressive outing, rushing for 310 yards on 58 attempts and catching 23 passes for another 152 yards.

Brandon Calver: Special Teams Contributor No More

Fullback Brandon Calver also bids farewell to Toronto after participating in six games this season, where he recorded three tackles on special teams. His exit comes shortly after the Argonauts signed fullback Felix Garand-Gauthier, a versatile player looking to make an impact.

Felix Garand-Gauthier Joins the Ranks

Felix Garand-Gauthier, a 6-foot-3, 220-pound converted linebacker, has been a part of the CFL for five seasons and brings significant experience with 22 special teams tackles over 48 games. At the age of 32, he not only adds depth but also a wealth of knowledge from his previous stints with the Redblacks, Alouettes, and Bombers.

What's Next for the Argonauts?

With spirits low after consecutive losses, the Argonauts will look to turn their season around when they face off against the Edmonton Elks (2-6) this Friday. Can they bounce back and regain their winning form? Fans will be eagerly watching!
