On Tuesday, the Edmonton Elks signed four players, including Arizona standout quarterback Khalil Tate.

Khalil Tate became the first player in PAC-12 history to win the Offensive Player of the Week four times. Tate was a 2017 Maxwell Award Finalist, 2017 Manning Award Finalist, and 2017 Davey O’Brien Award Semifinalist.

In addition to Tate, the Elks signed DB Christian Angulo (Cincinnati), DB Jhavonte Dean (Miami), and WR Raphael Leonard (Illinois State).
