Ka‘Deem Carey, Deonta McMahon and Canadian Daniel Adeboboye have all been key figures in the Toronto Argonauts’ offence this season, but their abilities will take on added significance in the Grey Cup on Sunday.
Toronto Argonauts running back Ka'Deem Carey carries the ball against Ottawa Redblacks linebacker Frankie Griffin during first half CFL football action in Toronto on Saturday, Oct. 19, 2024. Ka'Deem Carey, Deonta McMahon and Canadian Daniel Adeboboye have all been key figures in the Toronto Argonauts' offence this season but their abilities will take on added significance in the Grey Cup on Sunday.
Kelly, the CFL's outstanding player last season, suffered a leg injury Saturday in Toronto's 30-28 road win over the Montreal Alouettes in the East Division final. Veteran backup Nick Arbuckle, who started just once this season, will make his first Grey Cup start Sunday. Carey was the CFL's third-leading rusher this season with 1,060 yards . McMahon ran for 288 yards on 48 carries while Adeboboye had 244 yards on 63 carries in addition to contributing on special teams.
The unit was sixth against the run and did allow 5.3 yards per rush. However, that still sets up a passing situation on second down. Oliveira didn't crack the 100-yard plateau this season against Toronto but did run for combined 160 yards on 25 carries . The Argos were ranked second against the run however were eighth in pass defence and last in 30-plus yard completions allowed .
However, Collaros and Co. will have to be wary of Toronto linebacker Wynton McManis, who has a well-earned reputation of coming up with the timely turnover. His interception in the East Division semifinal set up the first of two fourth-quarter pick-sixes for the Argos in their 58-38 win over Ottawa.
