  1. Rene Paredes convierte un gol de campo de 62 yardas para darle la victoria a los Stampeders 40-38. El disparo de 62 yardas de Paredes con dos segundos en el reloj completó la remontada de Calgary ante 20,113 espectadores en McMahon Stadium y dejó a los Stampeders con marca de 6-8, manteniéndolos en la pelea por los playoffs de la División Oeste. El mariscal Vernon Adams Jr. lanzó para 357 yardas y dos anotaciones; el mariscal de Ottawa McLeod Bethel-Thompson lanzó cinco touchdowns en un arranque de 0-13 para los Redblacks.

  2. Toronto asegura su pase a los playoffs de la CFL con triunfo 24-19 sobre Edmonton. Chad Kelly lanzó dos pases de touchdown y los Argonauts aseguraron su lugar en la postemporada; empezarán las eliminatorias en BMO Field tras mejorar su posición. Kelly completó 19 de 31 envíos para 373 yardas con dos intercepciones. Toronto corrió para -1 yardas pero mejoró a 4-0 en BMO Field, según el entrenador Mike Miller.

  3. Alex Formenton firma con los Oilers en medio de protestas y peticiones. Formenton acordó un contrato por un año por 850,000 dólares el 9 de septiembre, luego de ser absuelto de cargos de agresión sexual de 2018 y ser autorizado para su readmisión en la NHL el 1 de diciembre de 2025; su fichaje provocó protestas afuera de Rogers Place y una petición que se acerca a las 70,000 firmas. Los Oilers defendieron el acuerdo, citando la absolución y lo que el club calificó como un “largo proceso de diligencia debida”.

  4. Tristan Jarry busca recuperar el puesto de titular con los Oilers esta temporada. Jarry llegó a Edmonton tras un canje desde Pittsburgh y se proyecta como el portero principal de los Oilers cuando arranque la temporada el 29 de septiembre, respaldado por Devon Levi y el retorno demorado de Frederik Andersen; Jarry jugó 19 partidos la temporada pasada por Edmonton con marca de 9-6-2 y trabajó para recuperarse de una lesión en la parte baja del cuerpo que lo dejó fuera casi un mes.
