DL Andrew Chatfield Jr. out for final game of Toronto Argonauts’ season

The Toronto Argonauts will conclude the 2025 season on Saturday without the services of their top pass rusher.

Defensive end Andrew Chatfield Jr. will sit out the regular-season finale with a foot injury. In 17 games this season, the 26-year-old has recorded 42 defensive tackles, seven sacks, and a defensive touchdown.

The Argos will use the opportunity to get a look at a couple of other players, with veteran Global defensive end Thiadric Hansen (calf) also unable to go. Brevin Allen will make his CFL debut, while Greg Reaves will dress for the first time since Week 5.

Along the offensive line, Anthony Vandal has been demoted in favour of veteran Shane Richards. Darius Ciraco is returning from injury but will not start.

Other notable players out this week include Canadian offensive lineman Dylan Giffen (back) and National defensive back Jonathan Edouard (foot). Receiver Dorian Anderson will be a healthy scratch. Canadian receiver Ezechiel Tieide will make his Argos debut, while Global kicker Alfredo Gachuz Lozada dresses as a third specialist.

The Toronto Argonauts (5-12) will visit the Calgary Stampeders (9-7) at McMahon Stadium on Saturday, October 18, with kickoff slated for 7:00 p.m. EDT. The Argonauts lost in Saskatchewan this past week, while the Stampeders snapped a four-game losing skid with a 37-20 victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

The weather forecast in Calgary calls for a high of 11 degrees with a mix of sun and clouds. The game will be broadcast on TSN in Canada and CFL+ internationally. Radio listeners can tune in on TSN 1050 in Toronto and 770 CHQR in Calgary.
