CALGARY — It turns out it was far too early to count out Hamilton Tiger-Cats offensive lineman Chris Van Zeyl.
Six months after being released by the Toronto Argonauts, Van Zeyl was named the CFL’s Nissan TITAN Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman on Thursday night, as the league’s biggest stars appeared at the Scotiabank Saddledome for the Shaw CFL Awards.
How many people vote for these awards? The story on “receiver” * Frankie says that he got 34 votes.
Yes that is what they called him: “The versatile receiver also made his presence known on defence, where he emerged as a regular starter at corner, totaling 50 tackles and an interception. He’ll take on the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the 107th Grey Cup presented by Shaw on Sunday.” ?
If anything (and not that he needs it at all - he is HOV) it will act as extra motivation to prove everyone wrong on Sunday. I would say, from a selfish fan perspective, that this is actually good for the team. ?
