Argos part ways with receiver Brandon Banks

I'm thinking Speedy will sign a one day contract to retire as a Tiger-Cat.

Banks had a great career with Hamilton, first as a return specialist, then as a receiver. He was incredible in 2019 and well deserving of the most outstanding player award. It’s too bad he couldn’t complete his career with the Tiger Cats, but he’s not the player today he was 3 years ago. With the Argos he had trouble getting open and dropped a lot of balls. Time to retire, especially now that he has a Grey Cup ring. All fans -TiCat, Argos or others- should be grateful for seeing him play in the last 9 seasons. Best wishes for him in the future, on or off the field.

His 2022 salary was around 100k and he would have stayed in Hamilton for even less money ( 90k) if you believe all the tweets and articles last year.

Brandon Banks would be a good marquee name acquistion for the expansion Halifax Schooners.
Unfortunately that burg STILL hasn't built a stadium after all these years of talk.
Too bad because Halifax ould support a team and the CFL could use a 10th team... and Speedy B needs a team.

All of the above PLUS - he didn’t learn a thing when Hamilton kicked him out and continued to be a distraction for his team mates until Pinball had to step in - during a game.

Nobody needs that crap…
