  "account": "VANCOUVER - The B.C. Lions have added four American players to their practice squad, including former Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Chris Oladokun, the CFL team announced on Monday. Oladokun, a 29-year-old native of Tampa, Florida, was part of the Chiefs from 2022 to 2025, serving as a backup to star quarterback Patrick Mahomes. During his tenure, Oladokun contributed 235 passing yards, completing 35 of his 55 pass attempts and throwing one touchdown without any interceptions. The Lions also signed Oladokun's younger brother, defensive back Jordan Oladokun, who had previously played for the Los Angeles Chargers before being placed on injured reserve in late training camp. In addition to Oladokun, the B.C. Lions made other roster changes on Monday, signing defensive back Thomas Graham and defensive lineman T.J. Burke, while releasing quarterback Chase Brice.",
