TORONTO — American linebacker Aaron Casey, who finished second on the team in sacks last season as a CFL rookie, was among the Toronto Argonauts final cuts.

Toronto unveiled its moves Sunday. CFL teams had until Saturday to make their final cuts ahead of the start of the regular season.

Clubs must get their active rosters down to 44 or 45 players, with a minimum of 21 being Canadian. A maximum of 19 players, excluding quarterbacks, can be American with a minimum of one player from outside North America (global).

The six-foot-two, 235-pound Casey appeared in 15 games last season. He registered 27 tackles, nine special-teams tackles, six sacks and a forced fumble.
