Randy Ambrosie said the CFL is currently too busy dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic to seriously consider a partnership with The Spring League.
Ambrosie said he told Woods he was welcome to send the CFL commissioner a follow-up email. But Ambrosie said he never requested a formal proposal from Woods or expressed interest in his partnership plan.
Last week, Woods said he’d approached Ambrosie about a partnership that would see CFL teams practising with and playing against The Spring League clubs in the U.S. in September. “I’m trying to keep an open mind to everything,” Ambrosie said at the time. “The one quality of this job is try to make friends, build relationships and explore all options.
Ambrosie announced May 20 a best-case scenario for the CFL was opening an abbreviated season in September due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But he also reiterated a cancelled 2020 campaign remains a possibility.
