- In the NFL divisional playoff round, all Canadians were officially knocked out of Super Bowl contention with Taylor Rapp’s Rams and David Onyemata’s Saints losing to the Packers and the Buccaneers, respectively. Onyemata had 3 tackles in the game, while Rapp was still on injured reserve, causing him to miss his matchup.
- CFC100 CB Patrice Rene announced that he’s transferring from North Carolina to Rutgers for his final year of eligibility. Reportedly, his decision came down to Auburn, Oklahoma, and Rutgers, but his ties to the Rutgers program (the likes of CFC100 DE Wesley Bailey and CFC100 DE Rene Konga) led him to make the Scarlet Knights his new team.
- Lots of Canadians made their all-conference teams in the 2020 season, with the Big 12 leading in terms of Canadian content. CFC100s Alonzo Addae, Akheem Mesidor, Chuba Hubbard, and Amen Ogbongbemiga all made the All-Big 12 teams, while CFC40 Alaric Jackson and CFC100 Chase Brown made the All-Big 10 team. Over in the MAC, CFC100 Sidy Sow and CFC60 Mohamed Diallo made their all-conference team too.
