Jalen Philpot Signs Two-Year Extension with Stampeders

The Calgary Stampeders have signed wide receiver Jalen Philpot to a two-year contract extension, ensuring his presence with the team through the 2026 season. Philpot, who played all 18 games last season, recorded 66 receptions for 659 yards and three touchdowns. The 24-year-old, a first-round pick in the 2022 CFL Draft, faced challenges in 2023 due to a hamstring injury that sidelined him for most of the season. Stampeders GM Dave Dickenson emphasized Philpot's importance for the team's growth, indicating a focus on developing young talent. Philpot expressed enthusiasm about his commitment to Calgary and aims to contribute to restoring the team's winning culture. As the Stampeders look to improve following a disappointing season, Philpot's continued development will be crucial.
