Last season the CFL rookie only got one start in the final regular season of the game for the Argonauts, but came through when it mattered the most when he had his number called in the 2022 Grey Cup.

Inside the Rebels will continue to monitor the former Ole Miss great and his hot start as a full-time CFL starter. Kelly and the Toronto Argonauts will seek a 5-0 start to their 2023 season Friday, July 21 as they hit the road again when they line up against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats (2-3).

In his short and young CFL career Kelly has now thrown for 1,374 passing yards (600 yards in last two games), 10 total touchdowns, six interceptions on a completion percentage of 66.8 percent (97-of-145) in his three career starts. Kelly and the Argonauts faced their toughest challenge of the year, but pulled out a gut check- like victory on the road in Molson Stadium. There were just under 20,000 fans in attendance to watch what was the best game of the season so far in the league. The team, led by Kelly, look like clear-cut condenters to defend their Grey Cup title from a season ago.Ĭhad Kelly winds up to fire a pass against the Montreal Alouettes (Photo: Peter McCabe/CFL.ca) According to the Canadian Press, the Argonauts are 4-0 for the first time since 1983.

We obviously made plays,converted on second down, we got the running game going, (and made) some explosive plays.” “Second half, we stayed ahead of the sticks. “We stubbed ourselves in the foot in the first half,” Kelly told reporters following the victory. Not only did the former Rebel great mange to complete 84 percent (21/25) of his passes and throw for 351 yards along with three touchdown passes (one interception), he also threw the game winning strike from 37 yards out with just under two minutes left in the ball game. Friday night, fresh off a bye-week, Kelly led the Toronto Argonauts to a classic 35-27 victory over the Montreal Alouettes en route to a 4-0 start. If you were wondering how former Ole Miss quarterback Chad Kelly is doing in the Canadian Football League, he remains surging.
