The Argos had put Kelly on the one-game list through each week of the season, allowing the CFL\u2019s 2023 outstanding player to practise with the team as he recovered from a serious leg injury suffered in last year\u2019s East Division final.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n With Kelly sidelined, Arbuckle led Toronto to its 41-24 Grey Cup win over Winnipeg at B.C. Place. He was named the game MVP after completing 26-of-37 passes for 252 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions.<\/p>\n The Argos were hopeful Kelly might return following their bye week. However, Arbuckle \u2014 who has been the starter all season to this point \u2014 remained under centre for Toronto\u2019s 26-25 loss to Montreal on Thursday before leading the squad to its first home victory Saturday night.<\/p>\n Your Midday Sun<\/p>\n Thanks for signing up!<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Advertisement 3<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n And Arbuckle will remain under centre Friday night when Toronto (2-5) visits Winnipeg (3-3) to complete the home-and-home set.<\/p>\n \u201cI think it (placing Kelly on six-game list) is a smart decision,\u201d Toronto coach Ryan Dinwiddie said following Saturday\u2019s game. \u201cWe\u2019ve got to look after Chad and the organization.<\/p>\n \u201cWe just can\u2019t force his hand, \u2018Let\u2019s play,\u2019 when we\u2019re not sure yet. When we\u2019re fully sure of the situation collectively we\u2019ll make that decision. He\u2019s willing to play but at the same time we\u2019re going to put him on the field when he\u2019s ready to play.\u201d<\/p>\n Kelly was on Toronto\u2019s sidelines Saturday night but Dinwiddie said there\u2019s no timeline regarding when the quarterback will make his \u201925 debut.<\/p>\n \u201cWho knows?\u201d he said. \u201cThat could be week to week but he\u2019s working at it.<\/p>\n Advertisement 4<\/p>\n This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n \u201cHe wants to be there for his brothers \u2026 he\u2019s always around and when he\u2019s around he makes us better, on or off the field. When the time comes we\u2019ll make that decision but it\u2019s got to be collectively \u2026 we have to make a decision when it\u2019s the right time and we won\u2019t make that decision until it is the right time.\u201d<\/p>\n Kelly missed Toronto\u2019s first nine regular-season games in 2024 due to a CFL-imposed suspension. The six-foot-one, 216-pound American returned to the Argos, completing 175-of-258 passes (67.8 per cent) for 2,451 yards with 10 TDs and eight interceptions.<\/p>\n He earned CFL outstanding player honours in 2023 after passing for 4,123 yards with 23 TDs and 12 interceptions.<\/p>\n Article content<\/p>\n Share this article in your social network<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Breadcrumb Trail Links SportsFootballCFLToronto Argonauts Author of the article: Published Jul 27, 2025 \u00a0\u2022\u00a0 2 minute read You…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":31422,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[437],"tags":[49,48,521,522,520,82],"class_list":["post-31421","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cfl","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-canadian-football-league","tag-canadianfootballleague","tag-cfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31421","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31421"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31421\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31422"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31421"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31421"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31421"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Toronto](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6885a83820a8836668fce4eejpeg-1.jpg\")
