Riders cash in on Argo miscues to post 28-24 win
There will be no Toronto Argonauts sweep of Saskatchewan in 2026.
In Regina, Saskatchewan, the Saskatchewan Roughriders triumphed over the Toronto Argonauts 28-24 in a tightly contested CFL game on August 29, 2026. The hometown Roughriders took advantage of a few missteps from the Toronto offense to secure the victory in front of a sold-out crowd at Mosaic Stadium, which set a CFL record with 33,350 attendees.
The Toronto quarterback, Chad Kelly, threw for 416 yards with three touchdowns and an interception, but his performance was marred by multiple drops and sacks. The Argonauts' botched conversions, including a missed field goal and an offside penalty, proved costly, with the Roughriders capitalizing on these mistakes to take a 24-21 lead late in the fourth quarter.
Quarterback Trevor Harris and receiver KeeSean Johnson delivered a strong performance, connecting for 146 yards and a touchdown, while Harris credited his team's effort to keep the momentum going. The Roughriders will next face the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on September 6, while the Argonauts travel to visit the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on September 7.
