Lirim Hajrullahu misses 40-yard field goal on final play, but single point gives Toronto Argonauts 20-19 win over Saskatchewan Roughriders
Toronto Argonauts quarterback Chad Kelly runs under pressure during the first half against the Saskatchewan Roughriders in Toronto. The Argos won 20-19 on Aug. 22, 2024.Lirim Hajrullahu’s single on the game’s final play earned Toronto a 20-19 home win over the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Thursday in Argonauts quarterback Chad Kelly’s ‘24 debut.
It followed an independent investigation into a lawsuit filed by a former Argos strength-and-conditioning coach against Kelly for sexual harassment and the team for wrongful dismissal. The lawsuit was settled in June through mediation. One of the better ones was a flea flicker from Saskatchewan’s 23-yard line late in the third. But Makai Polk had to slow down for Kelly’s fluttering pass, allowing Riders defenders to converge and get the incompletion and force Hajrullahu’s 30-yard field goal to open the fourth, pulling the Argos to within 16-13.
Lauther connected from 40 yards out at 7:32 of the third to put Saskatchewan ahead 16-10. Toronto drove to the Riders’ two-yard line but after Deonta McMahon was stopped for no gain on second down, the Argos turned it over on downs when Kelly’s pass fell incomplete.
