The Toronto Argonauts got a huge win over the weekend, but they lost so much more with Chad Kelly.
Kelly had to be taken off the field on a stretcher due to a gruesome right leg injury in the third quarter.
The Argonauts defeated the defending champion Montreal Alouettes 30-28 in the CFL’s East Division final on Saturday, but now we have to figure out if they will continue the year without Kelly.
Kelly could be seen grabbing his leg after a play as he broke his ankle late in the third quarter.

Chad Kelly went down after a nine-yard scramble late in the third quarter and had his lower right leg landed on by Montreal Alouettes’ defensive end Isaac Adeyemi-Berglund.
Kelly threw 11-for-22 for 182 yards, one TD, and two interceptions before the gruesome injury.
His backup, Nick Arbuckle, went 5-for-8 for 73 yards.
Arbuckle appears to be the man going forward who will be a starter in the Grey Cup game next Sunday in Vancouver.
