Edmonton Elks

On Tuesday, the Edmonton Elks re-signed offensive lineman Jesse Gibbon to a two-year extension through the 2024 season. The 25-year-old from Hamilton, Ontario, has played five games since being acquired from the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on September 2nd.

In the trade, the Elks got Gibbon along with a 2023 second-round pick, and Hamilton got offensive lineman David Beard and a 2023 fourth-round pick. Jesse Gibbon played eleven games for Hamilton this year before being traded to Edmonton.
