Edmonton Elks receiver Dillon Mitchell aiming for rare 2,000-yard season
There have only been three players in CFL history who have amassed 2,000 or more receiving yards in a season.
Now that knows the playbook “like the back of my hand” and he’ll hit the ground running in 2023, he’s bullish about his chances to help turn the Elks around and become one of the league’s receiving greats. “We are playing a game to entertain people, so being able to work on releases, work on getting open, to catch the ball, I feel the special ability that I have will definitely be shown this year.”
“We’ve got some good players there at the receiving position, there’s no doubt,” said Jones. “We went out in free agency and we added three guys to the guys that we had, and we feel very strongly that we can compete.”
