The stat sheet from Week 1 may not jump off the page, but Keelan White\u2019s opportunity certainly does.<\/p>\n
White tied Eugene Lewis<\/a> for the team lead with nine targets against Edmonton, hauling in four catches for 37 yards in rainy conditions that made life difficult for both offences. Better weather could provide a different story against Toronto. White was also heavily targeted throughout the preseason, and a breakout campaign may be loading for the second-year Canadian pass catcher.<\/p>\n The Argonauts surrendered 441 passing yards to Montreal in Week 2, including a monster 193-yard, two-touchdown performance by Canadian receiver Tyson Philpot. White will have plenty of competition for touches with Lewis, Justin Hardy<\/a> and Ayden Eberhardt<\/a> also in the mix, but if his target share remains high, the Ottawa receiver could be poised for a big performance on Saturday.<\/p>\n AUSTIN MACK | EDMONTON ELKS<\/p>\n Montreal at Edmonton | Saturday, June 20 |\u00a04:00 p.m. ET | TSN\/RDS\/CFL+<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Circle this one if you enjoy a good reunion.<\/p>\n Both Cody Fajardo<\/a> and Austin Mack were key contributors to Montreal\u2019s 110th Grey Cup-winning team in 2023, and on Saturday they\u2019ll try to hand their former club its first loss of the season. Despite difficult weather conditions in Ottawa during Week 1, the duo wasted little time rekindling their chemistry, connecting for a touchdown in Edmonton\u2019s season-opening victory.<\/p>\n Now they\u2019ll face an Alouettes team led by Davis Alexander<\/a>, who has yet to lose a regular season start in his CFL career. If the Elks are going to slow one of the league\u2019s hottest teams, another strong connection between Fajardo and Mack could go a long way toward making that happen.<\/p>\n JALEN PHILPOT | RECEIVER | CALGARY STAMPEDERS<\/p>\n Saskatchewan at Calgary | Saturday, June 20 |\u00a07:00 p.m. ET | TSN\/CBSSN\/CFL+<\/p>\n Calgary receiver Jalen Philpot will look to build on his 96-yard season debut as the Stampeders host Saskatchewan on Saturday. (Leah Hennel\/CFL.ca)<\/p>\n The Roughriders\u2019 passing attack stole the spotlight in Week 2.<\/p>\n Samuel Emilus<\/a> found the end zone three times, while KeeSean Johnson and Kian Schaffer-Baker<\/a> combined for nearly 300 receiving yards as Trevor Harris<\/a> carved up the BC defence. If Calgary is going to keep pace on Saturday, Jalen Philpot will likely be a key piece of the equation.<\/p>\n Philpot opened his season with five catches for 96 yards in Week 1 and has already shown the ability to stretch the field for Vernon Adams Jr. With Saskatchewan\u2019s offence capable of putting points on the board in a hurry, Calgary could benefit from another productive outing from the Canadian receiver as it looks to match one of the CFL\u2019s hottest aerial attacks in Saskatchewan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"TORONTO \u2014 Saturday\u2019s Week 3 triple header features plenty of intriguing matchups across the league, with six teams…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":751795,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[437],"tags":[49,48,521,522,520,82],"class_list":["post-751794","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\/751794","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=751794"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/751794\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/751795"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=751794"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=751794"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=751794"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Janusas_Philpot_2026_002.jpg\")
