- Many Canadian NFLers had solid week 11 outings. CB Tevaughn Campbell of the LA Chargers scored a pick-six against the Jets while also tacking on 4 tackles and 2 PBUs. CFC100 WR Chase Claypool of the Steelers had 4 catches for 59 yards and a TD, while Patriots WR N’Keal Harry had 5 catches for 41 yards. Eagles LB Alex Singleton put out another great outing for his team too, with 12 tackles and a sack.
- This past weekend in college football once again a record-setting number of games were cancelled, and many Canadian players were affected. Some players still got on the field and some receivers had solid outings like CFC60 Samuel Emilus at UMass with 4 catches for 82 yards (very good for how bad of a team they are), CFC100 Jared Wayne with 5 catches for 62 yards for Pitt, and CFC100 John Metchie with 6 catches for 55 yards and 2 scores for Alabama. On the defensive side, among the top Canadian performers was CFC40 DT Mohamed Diallo at CMU with 6 tackles and 2 sacks.
- In recruiting news, CFC100 RB Fabrice Mukendi made his commitment to Bryan University. The 5’9”, 190lbs back had 5 FCS offers from the likes of Colgate, Bryant, Lafayette, Holy Cross, and Fordham before deciding on the Bulldogs, where he’ll join other Canadian RB, CFC100 Daniel Adeboboye.
