Toronto Argonauts Win 19th Grey Cup Title

Backup quarterback Nick Arbuckle led the Toronto Argonauts to their 19th Grey Cup title with a 41-24 victory over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers at BC Place. Arbuckle, who stepped in after starter Chad Kelly's injury, threw two crucial second-half touchdown passes in a game where Toronto extended its winning streak to eight Grey Cup appearances against Winnipeg. The Argonauts, who previously defeated Winnipeg in 2022, capitalized on turnovers and maintained a steady lead despite the Blue Bombers' initial advantage. Winnipeg, appearing in its fifth consecutive Grey Cup, struggled defensively against Toronto's offensive surge led by Arbuckle and critical interceptions by DaShaun Amos and Robert Priester. The Blue Bombers, with quarterback Zach Collaros, failed to close the gap despite early leads and field goals by Sergio Castillo. This defeat adds to the Blue Bombers' recent history, having last won consecutive titles in 2019 and 2021.
