Quick Summary

Toronto Argonauts coach Mike Miller has not disclosed quarterback Chad Kelly’s injury status or his availability for an upcoming game against the Montreal Alouettes on Friday night. Kelly suffered a lower-body injury during Toronto’s recent loss to the Ottawa Redblacks and is currently receiving treatment, though the specific nature of the injury remains undisclosed.

Story summary

Toronto Argonauts coach Mike Miller has declined to comment on quarterback Chad Kelly’s injury status following a recent game against the Ottawa Redblacks. Kelly, 32, was injured during the match and limped noticeably afterward before receiving medical attention in a tent on the sidelines. The nature of his injury remains undisclosed as Miller awaits an update from the team's medical staff. In Kelly’s absence, veteran Nick Arbuckle stepped in and threw for 315 yards with two touchdowns but also recorded one interception. Toronto faces the Montreal Alouettes in their final regular-season game this Friday, though there is an expectation that starters like Kelly won't play to preserve their health for the upcoming East semifinal on October 31.
