CFL history was made last night, as Tyreik McAllister put together 3 different ways to score a touchdown during Friday’s match-up.
McAllister becomes the first CFL player to record a rushing touchdown, a receiving touchdown, and a kick return touch down in a single game.
The Stampeders running back scored a 17-yard rushing TD, then a 56-yard TD pass, and finally a 118 yard missed field goal return TD, with all 3 coming in the first half of the game.
With that win, the Stamps have two games under their belt scoring 50 or more points, and have snapped a 2 game losing streak, while ending the Blue Bombers 3-game winning streak.
Calgary quarterback Vernon Adams Jr. is also making history, as he has now thrown 269 consecutive passes without an interception, a record that dates back to last season for Adams.
Calgary’s offence totaled 387 net yards, with Jalen Philpot, Tevin Jones and Dedrick Mills adding touchdowns. Philpot led all receivers with four catches for 128 yards, including a 69-yard score.
