The Hamilton Tiger-Cats will have first crack at giving quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell a new CFL home.
According to two league sources, the Ticats have acquired the rights to Mitchell from the Calgary Stampeders. The sources spoke on the condition of anonymity because neither club has announced the deal.Mitchell, 32, joined the Stampeders in 2012 and had played his entire CFL tenure in Calgary, leading the franchise to two Grey Cup titles while twice being named the league's outstanding player.
The move gives the Ticats, who host the Grey Cup in 2023, an opportunity to talk turkey with Mitchell, who is scheduled to become a free agent in February.The deal creates questions about the future of Ticats starter Dane Evans. Hamilton finished third in the East Division this season before losing 28-17 to the Montreal Alouettes in the conference semifinal.
But he also led the CFL in interceptions , fumbles and fumbles lost while winning just six-of-14 regular-season starts.
